“ I believe that I shall see…”. Until the pandemic, my parish hosted a Taize service every Wednesday evening. The prayers were short and repeated multiple times, embedding them in my consciousness. One of them is mentioned in this week’s message, “I believe I shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord.” Over and over, we were invited to see God right here right now. And to be patient as we wait for the Lord during times of conflict and suffering. The repetition made that awareness part of me and has often been a source of encouragement and strength.
