speak to the weary a word that will rouse them

“The Lord GOD has given me a well-trained tongue, that I might know how to speak to the weary a word that will rouse them. Morning after morning he opens my ear that I may hear; and I have not rebelled, have not turned back.” (IS 50: 4-5)

There are difficult moments in our lives, and there are better moments. When we are in trouble, we need a good word from our friends; when we are in good moments, we can support others. We can pray and ask to receive a gift of a “well-trained tongue” to know how “to speak to the weary a word that will rouse them.”

“Hail to you, our King; you alone are compassionate with our errors.” (Gospel Acclamation)
