Luke 19: 41-48 "Jesus Weeps over Jerusalem"
A prayer, in the form of a collect, based on a bible reading for today.
A collect based on Luke 19: 41-48
Jesus, who wept over the needless pain and suffering of the people,
And fought against systemic exploitation of the poor and vulnerable.
Help us to challenge those seeking positions of authority within our society when they reject your path of compassion and plot a course of discord and violence.
For this world could be your world; the people held spellbound by a message of love, peace, and forgiveness.
May it be so. Amen
