Life-Line

115Today’s Life-Line is:

Our Father, Mother, who are in the world
and surpass the world,
blessed by your presence, in us, in animals
and flowers, in still air and wind.
May justice and peace dwell among us
as you come to us.
Your will be our will.
You will that we be sisters and brothers,
as bread is bread, water is itself,
for our hunger, for quenching of thirst.
Forgive us.
We walk crookedly in the world,
are perverse, and fail of our promise.
But we would be human,
If only you consent to stir up our hearts.
Amen. Amen.

~ Daniel Berrigan, S.J.
R.I.P. (1921-2016)
