URGENT PRAYER NEEDED


HEAVENLY FATHER, 

You have promised to hear us when we pray in the name of your son..
Therefore in confidence and trust we pray


FOR YOUR CHURCH

enliven your Church for its mission
breathe fresh life into your people.

Lift us up when our hearts are drab and dreary, open our compassion and inspire us when the way seems long. 


FOR YOUR WORLD

lead us and all people into ways of justice and peace

Pray for
ALL MY RELATIONS: The Navajo  the Hopi and the United States government

   For all my relations

Guard and guide us all in this foundation year of the  millennium. Teach us a new way of life and new ways to be  together. Ways of sharing the burdens, and of lessening them rather than making them heavier for others. I pray for those of all religions and none, all people of spirit and peace. 

MISSY
AND FRIENDS

awaken in us a sense of wonder 
for the earth and all that is in it.

Lord , I can scarcely imagine a man who, when he says he is going to cuddle the cat, may mean a cougar, or a fully grown lion. When I consider how I demand that my animals have to fit in so much with me, and with my artificial, constrained, safe little world, I am filled with praise that there are some whose daily living arrangements are in such natural harmony that they encompass both human and wild needs, and think that perhaps the humans too are the healthier for it. 

The sense of wonder grows in me. Dear Lord, could your whole world perhaps become a place where all your creatures really might lie down together in safety and joy?

Where the lion, the man and the dog have lain down together, perhaps the lamb would not be so silly to join in, after all.


FOR OUR COMMUNITY

Give grace to all whose lives are linked with ours

Dear Lord, I feel my mind dwell on each member of my family. Teach me to care for them and love them properly. For they and their love are your physical presence with me.

I pray for all who live with me, asking you, who know them so much better than I do, to open my understanding of them, and my gentleness toward them. I pray for their protection and deliverance from all harm and all evil influences.  For their strength and courage, where it is is needed. 

Thank you for my friends. Look after each one of them, as only you can do...
 

FOR THOSE IN NEED

GOD OF HOPE, COMFORT AND RESTORE 
ALL WHO SUFFER IN BODY, MIND, OR SOUL

HB and SD

Dear Father. I have two friends now who suffer from ME. their emotional pain is terrible. I know that my crying about their condition doesn't help at all. But I look at them, their weariness, their sorrow, their depression, and I can't help but wonder at your purposes for them. 

I praise you for H's great strength and courage. She has transformed a life of pain and tiredness into a ministry, by letters, and gifts and by telephone she continues to spread love and compassion. 

I pray for those who suffer the excruciating pain of arthritis, constant torment of headaches, nausea and dizziness, Lord, lift us up.. 
 

V

I give thanks for V's constant encouragement to others, and pray for her,  my heart goes out to her day and night. We pray especially for her at this time of personal crisis and decision. and we ask for your blessing on her in her faithfulness. 

 

AH

Look after her, as her life and her household falls down about her  ears. Give her the strength and resources that she needs to rebuild her life from the ground up. Body and soul. 

MA

I pray for M, and for her family. With two constantly sick children and one pre- teen, there is surely enough for her to cope with. She does remarkable things for our whole community, Lord. She has constant dizziness and loss of memory, progressive Menier's syndrome, epilepsy and an operation in the past barely over and problems with her eyes. Keep her as the apple of your eye, hide her in the shadow of your wings.

we pray for each of them

MAY THEY KNOW THE POWER OF YOUR HEALING LOVE. 

MAKE US WILLING AGENTS OF YOUR COMPASSION

STRENGTHEN US AS WE SHARE IN MAKING PEOPLE WHOLE


THOSE WHO HAVE DIED
& THOSE WHO MOURN

WE REMEMBER WITH THANKSGIVING THOSE WHO HAVE DIED IN THE FAITH OF CHRIST, AND THOSE WHOSE FAITH IS KNOWN TO YOU ALONE

FATHER, INTO YOUR HANDS WE COMMEND THEM

GIVE COMFORT TO THOSE WHO MOURN.

We pray for those who are in sore distress, for the sake of  their children who have died before them.
 
 
 

WE PRAISE YOU FOR ALL YOUR SAINTS WHO HAVE ENTERED YOUR ETERNAL GLORY

MAY THEIR EXAMPLE INSPIRE AND ENCOURAGE US.

The measure of our love for each other,
is the measure of our love for God.

All this day, O Lord, 
Let me touch as many lives as possible for thee;
and every life I touch, do thou by thy holy spirit, quicken, 
whether through the word I speak, 
the prayer I breathe, or the life I live. 
-Amen
