God of awesome wonder: bless us with bold belief even in the darkness of the night and the assault of life’s storms, that we may be messengers of your peace and justice; in the name of the One whom winds and waves obey, and who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
Psalm 105:1-6,16-22
1 O give thanks to the Lord and call upon his name: tell among the peoples what things he has done.
2 Sing to him, O sing praises: and be telling of all his marvellous works.
3 Exult in his holy name: and let those that seek the Lord be joyful in heart.
4 Seek the Lord and his strength: O seek his face continually.
5 Call to mind what wonders he has done: his marvellous acts, and the judgements of his mouth,
6 O seed of Abraham his servant: O children of Jacob his chosen one.
16 Then he called down a famine on the land: and destroyed the bread that was their stay.
17 But he had sent a man ahead of them: Joseph who was sold into slavery,
18 Whose feet they fastened with fetters: and thrust his neck into a hoop of iron.
19 Till the time that his words proved true: he was tested by the Lord’s command.
20 Then the king sent and loosed him: the ruler of nations set him free;
21 He made him master of his household: and ruler over all his possessions,
22 To rebuke his officers at will: and to teach his counsellors wisdom.
