LET US PRAY

Lord we come to You as humble as we know how, to worship and praise Your name. Lord we understand that destruction can come in a moment, but healing may take a lifetime. Teach us perseverance, teach us dedication, baptize us in the things of the Spirit;  so we can receive inward change.  We pray for our World God of the weak, God of the broken-hearted, God of the living, God of the dead, send healing to our World. Send hope to the children who are lost and alone, Send strength and healing to the wounded, and comfort to the grieving. Fill the leaders of our World with the wisdom to raise their country up. Fill relief workers with knowledge of this World needs. Bless the doctors and nurses with the power and the skill to save as many lives as possible. Open their eyes, steady their hands. We pray for our World. Lord we pray for our World and the people in it, no matter how great or small, saved or lost, color or creed Lord we pray for our World. God, be with all the children that are returning to school this school year, give them guidance and protection. Calm their fears, ease their homesickness (for those that will be leaving home for college), and bring new and vibrant relationships into their lives. Lord allow them to excel in every subject, and become the young man and woman You caIled them to be, we pray in Your precious name Amen
