Sixth Penitential Psalm: De profundis

 

[1] Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord: [2] Lord, hear my voice. Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication. [3] If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it. [4] For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord. My soul hath relied on his word: [5] My soul hath hoped in the Lord.

[6] From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord. [7] Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption. [8] And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

[7]Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption. [8] And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

A people celebrating the legal license to kill infants, infanticide, took great pride in that decision, so much so, that they lit the Empire State Bldg. in pink lights for the world to see. Bragging about the decision. Laughing at God. Ridiculing those who have tirelessly fought for the Right to Life.

New York New York…..where is your God? Is he sleeping? Is he unable to hear your leader Cuomo?

Mercy?
With him, God, there is plentiful redemption.

Would not Cuomo light up the Empire State Bldg now? Celebrating the deaths of more New Yorkers.. …the ones outside their mother’s wombs?

Seems the culture of death is getting what it loves. It seems that slapping God in the face on Sunday and asking for His help on Monday is not relationship building.

It seems that New York and its infatuation with laws to kill the innocents might, as a people, wish to wear sackcloth and cover themselves with ashes created from the collapse of the Trade Centers tower’s 1 and 2.

All of us fall short of His Glory and Grace…but with contrite hearts and public acts of reparations…New York might be redeemed.

Just a thought.
