I pray for the apocalypse

I pray for the apocalypse, today.

Here is one of the original meanings of Apocalypse:  Old English, via Old French and ecclesiastical Latin from Greek apokalupsis, from apokaluptein ‘uncover, reveal’, from apo- ‘un-‘ + kaluptein ‘to cover’.

So yes, I pray for the apocalypse.

I pray for the uncovering of falsehood.

I pray for the discovery of all that is good and beautiful inside us, all that is currently hidden by ego and greed and injustice.

I pray for the apocalypse, that we may come to uncover the beauty that is hidden inside.

I pray for the revealing of the goodness of creation and the goodness of humanity, because we are made in the image of God.

I pray for us to have an apocalyptic realization that the way the world is now is the way it should be, that we are not intended to live like this.

I pray for the apocalypse that will help us see that another world is possible, Here and Now, and that we may be participants in making it so.

I pray for this current state of the world to end, and for a new beginning based on love and justice for all of God’s children.

I pray for apocalypse, today, and every day.
