Scripture  

Lamentations 3:25–26 (NRSV)  

The Lord is good to those who wait for him,  

to the soul that seeks him.  

It is good that one should wait quietly  

for the salvation of the Lord.

Refrain  

I will wait with hope through the night.

Poem  

John O’Donohue, from To Bless the Space Between Us

“This is the time to be slow,  

Lie low to the wall  

Until the bitter weather passes.  

Try, as best you can, not to let  

The wire brush of doubt  

Scrape from your heart  

All sense of yourself and your hesitant light.  

If you remain generous,  

Time will come good;  

And you will find your feet  

Again on fresh pastures of promise,  

Where the air will be kind  

And blushed with beginning.”
