Where are you, O God, when we need you?
Where are you when we are weeping,
when our hearts are breaking,
when our only food is tears,
when our minds are on
one we have lost?
Give us the mind of a little child,
and a mind to say, "Your will be
done."

will be done."

never enter it." [Jesus to his disciples]
