Dear Lord,

Let the heavy burdens of our fears, anger, sorrow and anxiety about the futures of ourselves and everyone we love be lifted to You. Every moment we need You and praise You. Yet these moments, where everything is very uncertain and beyond our comprehension we are made truly aware of how much we need You. How much we ALL need to pray to witness Your grace and mercy each day. Show us our blessings so that we may be able to feel confident and strong to stand up for others. Thank You, for giving us strength. Let us bring Your strength to others. Amen.
