Psalm 85: 8 Show us Lord, your love; and grant us your salvation This is our hope. This is our plea as we begin this new liturgical year. Show us, Lord your love amidst hatred, evil intent, distractions, misguided opportunities, excessive consumption, ingratitude, internal struggles, sickness, war and famine. Grant us your salvation as your continually pursue us. May we turn to you as we cry, Maranatha! Come, O Lord, Jesus!
