《米該亞書》的最後一章彷彿寫於今日。
在以色列所犯的罪惡進行了一番令人痛心的剖析之後,先知宣告了懲罰的到來,同時也帶來了重建的希望。
在結尾——也就是我們今天所讀的這段經文——先知向上主祈禱:充滿希望和讚美。
透過這種方式,祂向我們展示了,當我們面對當今無窮無盡的難題時,我們始終可以做什麼:我們可以與上主交談,並在讚美祂無限的愛中找到新的希望。
The last chapter of the book of Micha seems to be written today.
After a disenchanted analysis of the evils committed in Israel, the prophet announces both the punishment and the hope of reconstruction.
At the end – the text we read today – the prophet speaks to God in prayer: hope and praise.
In doing this, he shows us what we can always do when we face the infinite problems of our days: we can talk to God and find new hope in praising his infinite love.
