• A tiny litany for Holy Saturday

      Jesus, stir in me hope.

      When I struggle to understand in the waiting… Jesus, stir in me hope.

      When I pack my days to avoid the stillness of rest…Jesus, stir in me hope.

      When the silence of grief hits me when I least expect it…Jesus, stir in me hope.

      When I fail to see the goodness of God in the land of the living…Jesus, stir in me hope.

      When I can’t see the light that is to come beyond the darkness of my soul…Jesus, stir in me hope.

      When the weight of my suffering makes me doubt Your promise of resurrection…Jesus, stir in me hope.

      Jesus, stir in me hope- for the silence will end and the dawn is coming.
