Praise the Lord, all you nations! Extol him, all you peoples! For great is his steadfast love towards us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures for ever. Praise the Lord! (Psalm 117)
The descendents of Abraham came - over the generations - to understand that while they had been especially chosen their God was the God of all.
The Jewish religious calendar includes many celebrations of national salavation. It avoids celebrating the defeat of others. For even the enemy is a child of God.
God loves us. God is faithful to us. Each of us and all of us were created with intention and purpose. All of us are working to find that purpose.
All of us lose our way some of the time. Some seem to be lost forever. But God is always faithful and hopeful and ready to help.
Each of us is a unique expression of God. We are to find our unique voice and add it to a heavenly chorus. Together we will sing a complex - but very beautiful - harmony.
