From lamentations 3 1-34
first on despair:
"I am the man who has known affliction
I have felt the rod of his wrath"... yes we are all feeling the wrath of God, our world is imploding and in the next generation a new order and govenance will have to be established if we dont want to destroy all.
However look at the enormous messsage of hope in the text following despair:
Hope
"the memory of my distress and my wanderings,
is wormwood and gall.
remember, o remember, and stoop down to me;
All this I take to heart, and therefore I will wait patiently; the Lord's true love is surely not spent, nor has his compassion failed;
they are new every morning,
so great is his constancy"
Let it give us the tools to accept change and change our world for the better!
