What part do we play?
Let my people thrive, dear Lord: family, fellows, neighbors, townsfolk.
We follow you through mountain tracks and down onto the plains. A moving beacon, you beckon, we come.
❖
My part, Lord, what is my part to play? Do I exhort my fellows? Blaze the way? Guard the rear?
Is my part to ask you for intercession?
Let us thrive, Lord.

Consider:
Can I understand the part I am to play in our collective well-being?
