Dear Lord,

We thank you for guiding us in times of grief and never forsaking us. Now, as of old, you are with us, Lord our God, and you show us the way in every situation. Protect us in this present time, and grant us strength to go on patiently even when our lives hold much suffering and distress.

Dear Lord,

This morning as we contemplate a new day, we ask you to help us. We want to be aware of your spirit—leading us in the decisions we take, the conversations we have, and the work we do. We want to be more like you, Jesus, as we relate to the people we meet today—friends or strangers.

Amen.

Dear Lord,

We come before you, and drink in this moment of peace, that we may carry something of your hope, love, and joy today in our hearts. Lord, grant us tenacious winsome courage as we go through this day. When we are tempted to give up, help us to keep going.

Amen.

Amen.
