Father,

We come to You today to ask for lifting, guidance and assistance for all those who are struggling. Bring in wisdom, for they do not know where to turn for direction. Bring us each a map that marks out the path of Your greatest and highest good, a path paved in Light.

We are each in gratitude for the blessings You bestow, both individually and for the world. We are in awe and utter happiness for being chosen to be here now. Although on the surface, we may not see it yet, but Your miracles are taking shape. Fill our hearts with the hope and knowing of that goodness benefiting our world.

We lift our hands to You now. May each one of us feel it and know it in our hearts. The truth, the promise, the reality. May we be filled with the faith of heart. Guide us through these uncertain times so that we may be of the most service, to give rest to the weary and lend a hand to those who have fallen. Help us be the light to those in need. Give us the courage to face the unknowns and unexpecteds and the fortitude to outshine any dark, for it is only with You in our hearts that we can continue. “Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before.” (1Thessalonians 4:11)
