Wednesday, 14 September 2016 : Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross (Psalm)

Liturgical Colour : Red
Psalm 77 : 1-2, 34-35, 36-37, 38

Give heed, o My people, to My teaching; listen to the words of My mouth! I will speak in parables, I will talk of old mysteries.

When God slew them, they repented and sought Him earnestly. They remembered that He was their Rock, the Most High their Redeemer.

But they flattered Him with their mouths, they lied to Him with their tongues, while their hearts were unfaithful; they were untrue to His covenant.

Even then, in His compassion, He forgave their offences and did not destroy them. Many a time He restrained His anger and did not fully stir up His wrath.
