My focus on the 10th Anniversary of Hurricane Katrina this past week has been challenging, exhausting, and fruitful. Saturday and Sunday I preached on Katrina and gave presentations to the congregation after each service. I am grateful to the outpouring of love and support from the people of St. Paul’s, and for reconnecting this week with many of the people who were a big part of our lives in the months and years after the storm.
Today it was good to get up early and read Morning Prayer. These words from Psalm 25 were perfect for what I needed to hear following a difficult week:
3Show me your ways, O LORD, *
and teach me your paths.
4Lead me in your truth and teach me, *
for you are the God of my salvation;
in you have I trusted all the day long.
5Remember, O LORD, your compassion and love, *
for they are from everlasting.
Stay tuned to the blog, I will post a link to my sermon and to the video slideshows I used in the presentations. In the meantime, let is remember – God’s love and compassion are from everlasting.
