Sunday reflection:
Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness; you set me at liberty when I was in trouble;
have mercy on me and hear my prayer. You have put gladness in my heart,more than when their corn and wine and oil increase.
In peace I will lie down and sleep, for it is you Lord, only, who make me dwell in safety.[I]Psalm 4.1,7-8
