Liturgical readings
Hebrews 1:2-3; 2:2-4
Psalm 95
2 Timothy 1:6-8, 13-14
Luke 17:5-10

"The vision still has its time and will not disappoint...wait for it."



How long, O Lord?


I cry for help
but you do not listen!


I cry out to you,
"Violence!"
but you do not intervene.


Why do you let me see ruin;
why must I look at misery?


Destruction and violence
are before me;
there is strife,
and clamorous discord.


Then the Lord answered me
and said:


Write down the vision
clearly upon the tablets,
so that one can read it readily,


For the vision still has its time,
presses on to fulfillment,
and will not disappoint;


If it delays, wait for it,
it will surely come,
it will not be late.


The rash man has not integrity;
but the just man,
because of his faith,
shall live.


Scripture quotes from the readings:
"Let us kneel before the Lord who made us...for he is our God." (Psalm 95)
"With the strength which comes from God bear your share of the hardship which the gospel entails." (2 Timothy)
"The just man, because of his faith, shall live." (Hebrews 1)
