Our kind heavenly Father,
My heart is heavy in despair,
Help me to help those who cannot help themselves,
Be with that man on the street and his family,
Help them get through this troubling time, to grow and prosper.
My heart is breaking for them right now.
Please let someone who is able, bless this family
with supplies to get through the day.
Be with them Lord, because at the end of the day,
It is your spirit that they need.
Help them to not lose faith in all that is important,
And allow them to see that this is just an obstacle, a grain of sand,
That will make them stronger and closer to you, Lord.
Help each and every one of us to do your work,
To follow the path you have set forth for us,
and to bless others with your light.
For those who may question their faith in the trials they face,
Help them to remain strong and know it all happens for a reason.
Be with our friends and families,
Keep them healthy and safe, at work and at play.
Grant everyone the power to do the best they are able.
Lord, I know you hear all prayers,
And I know you have your reasons for leaving some unanswered,
But, please, help those who are struggling to keep families together,
Make ends meet, who have fallen on ill health,
and those who need your light to keep carrying on.
Bless us Lord with your presence.
In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
