Verse of the day How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I bear pain in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all day long? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? - Psalm 13:1-2 Voice of the day Our children die before the silence of the world, and before the silence of God. How difficult is God’s silence! - Munther Isaac, “God Is Under the Rubble in Gaza” Prayer of the day O God, in the face of unbearable sorrow and the silence of both the world and heaven, we cry out with the psalmist: How long will you hide Your face? — come near to the suffering and break the silence with Your justice and mercy.
