You showed me the palm
of your luminous hand—
your hand of mercy
and kindness,
your hand of love
and blessing.
On the outer corner there was a dark speck.
“This speck represents
all the evil of all time
gathered together,”
you told me.
“The darkness,
that can seem to blot out
all light at times,
is but a speck
compared to the vastness and strength of my love.
And even this speck will
one day
be no more.
Trust the beauty
and strength
of my love,
it will endure forever.
——
I will sing of the Lord’s great love forever;
with my mouth I will make your faithfulness
known through all generations.
I will declare that your love stands firm forever,
that you established your faithfulness in heaven itself.
O Lord God Almighty, who is like you?
You are mighty, O Lord,
and your faithfulness surrounds you.
Psalm 89:1-2,8
