2024 - 03 - 10 Memories By The Rev Anders Edstrom.WAV

Today is the 4th Sunday in the season of Lent. Here at Greenfield Presbyterian Church in Berkley, MI the scripture readings for this season are from the book of Lamentations. Today’s scripture lesson is Lamentations 4:17-20 17 Our eyes continually failed, looking for some help, but for nothing. From our watchtower we watched for a nation that doesn’t save. 18 Our steps were tracked; we could no longer walk in our streets. Our end had drawn near; our days were done—our end had definitely come. 19 Our hunters were faster than airborne eagles. They chased us up the mountains; they ambushed us in the wilderness. 20 The Lord’s chosen one, the very breath in our lungs, was caught in their traps— the one we used to talk about, saying, “Under his protection we will live among the nations.”
