God,<\/p>\n

By now, the tragedy is well known. Dozens of Palestinians in Gaza were killed by Israeli fire at the border separating the two territories.<\/p>\n

Some were crossing illegally. Others were protesting.<\/p>\n

Decide between the narratives, God. There is only one truth, however nuanced.<\/p>\n

There may be guilt widely spread. There may be ample justification.<\/p>\n

But there is blood. And the blood draws attention to another tragedy: the situation itself.<\/p>\n

Gaza is suffering. God, give them hope.<\/p>\n

But give them more. Give them consistent electricity. Give them clean water. Give them movement.<\/p>\n

Egypt has opened its border with Gaza to allow some flow of people and goods, throughout Ramadan.<\/p>\n

But afterwards, God? What future with Egypt? What future with Israel? What future with the West Bank?<\/p>\n

What future at all?<\/p>\n

Give wisdom to all. There are security threats. There are humanitarian concerns. There are issues of basic dignity.<\/p>\n

It is likely the protests at the border will continue. It is likely that some will grow increasingly desperate. Some of these will give up. Some of these will act out.<\/p>\n

Where there is power, let it serve humbly. Where there is need, answer it graciously.<\/p>\n

God, Gaza is just part of a larger, intractable struggle. Unstuck it.<\/p>\n

Bring peace to the people on all sides of divide. Help Egypt be a friend to many.<\/p>\n

Amen.<\/p>\n
