    Psalm 118:1-29 NIV

    Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. [2] Let Israel say: “His love endures forever.” [3] Let the house of Aaron say: “His love endures forever.” [4] Let those who fear the Lord say: “His love endures forever.” [5] When hard pressed, I cried to the Lord; he brought me into a spacious place. [6] The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me? [7] The Lord is with me; he is my helper. I look in triumph on my enemies. [8] It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in humans. [9] It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes. [10] All the nations surrounded me, but in the name of the Lord I cut them down. [11] They surrounded me on every side, but in the name of the Lord I cut them down. [12] They swarmed around me like bees, but they were consumed as quickly as burning thorns; in the name of the Lord I cut them down. [13] I was pushed back and about to fall, but the Lord helped me. [14] The Lord is my strength and my defense ; he has become my salvation. [15] Shouts of joy and victory resound in the tents of the righteous: “The Lord's right hand has done mighty things! [16] The Lord's right hand is lifted high; the Lord's right hand has done mighty things!” [17] I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the Lord has done. [18] The Lord has chastened me severely, but he has not given me over to death. [19] Open for me the gates of the righteous; I will enter and give thanks to the Lord. [20] This is the gate of the Lord through which the righteous may enter. [21] I will give you thanks, for you answered me; you have become my salvation. [22] The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; [23] the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes. [24] The Lord has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad. [25] Lord, save us! Lord, grant us success! [26] Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. From the house of the Lord we bless you. [27] The Lord is God, and he has made his light shine on us. With boughs in hand, join in the festal procession up to the horns of the altar. [28] You are my God, and I will praise you; you are my God, and I will exalt you. [29] Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.

    Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on those in Belgium who have been devastated by these terror attacks.  Bring peace and comfort to families who have lost loved ones.  Bring healing for the many who were wounded.  Bring wisdom to government officials as they respond to the attacks. 

    Bring order out of chaos in Brussels.  May your Holy Spirit restrain the spread of evil to contain these attacks and keep others from happening. Please bring to justice those who are responsible.  And above all, show yourself to be the One True God - a God of love and grace as contrasted to false religions of hatred and intolerance. Cause Muslims in Belgium and around the world to question their faith in light of these ongoing hate crimes.  Call people out of this darkness and into the light of your Word.

    Please raise up your church to come alongside those who are suffering and grieving in the wake of these attacks. Make your people into your hands and feet, caring for the needs of those who are impacted - proclaiming your truth by word and by deed.  Turn this evil into good, Father - into advancement for your kingdom, into salvation for many who are currently far from you.

    In Jesus' name. Amen.
