Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere

It's June 3, one day before Pentecost, and word has come of another apparent terrorist attack in London.  The past two weeks have seen violence in Manchester, Jakarta, Cairo, Kabul, and on and on goes the list.  The above image references a poem by Warsan Shire, in which she asks an atlas of the world where it hurts.  The response?  Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere.

Lord, have mercy on us poor sinners here who don't know what we do. We hate and hurt and tear at each other like ravening wolves.  Forgive us, restore us, heal us. And pour out your Spirit on us all, everywhere, everywhere, everywhere.
