Father,

We come to you today in hope. The state of the world has us reeling. Father we know you and your army of Angels are at work in our world. We see You active in shining into all corrupt systems now and bringing them to Light. When we grasp the magnitude of what is happening, it enables us to let go of petty grievances and superficial wishes. We trust, Father, that our life is meaningful and precious in your eyes, and we are open to something new and good, beyond our wildest expectations happening. We too come into The Light ready and willing to rise above the darkness that has been operating in the shadows.

“For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.” (Matthew 6:14) Father we know we are not perfect. We know we’ve not treated our brothers and sisters with the love and respect as you command us to do. We cannot shake the feeling that everything is changing. In the midst of this chaos, we feel hope. We feel able to stand in the conviction that You mold us in Love, that you hold us in tenderness, and that you are moving us away from the sources of fear so we can be the forgiveness and compassion for our brothers and sisters that the world needs.

As we stand against darkness, fear and control, we rise out of hopelessness and worry into the light of Hope. We have faith, Father, that you are present, alive and active. Fill us with Your Light. Bring us strength to stand against the dark and not budge. Guide our every step. Fill us with Your Love so that we may shine as brightly as possible.

Let it be so,

In Jesus’ name,

Amen.
