Do all the good we can, but rely on grace

Whether we are victims of natural disaster, of human malice, or of our own foolishness.

See, the eyes of the LORD are upon those who fear him,
upon those who hope for his kindness,
To deliver them from death
and preserve them in spite of famine.

Our soul waits for the LORD,
who is our help and our shield.
May your kindness, O LORD, be upon us
who have put our hope in you.

(from today's Responsorial Psalm 33:4-5, 18-19, 20, 22)
