Holy One,
all about us people are in turmoil ...
economics have alienated and battered many ...
politics have divided and angered even more ...
people yearn for answers and certainty, but find only questions ...
and even in our Congregations and faith communities,
we are torn apart by divisive opinions and misunderstandings ...
Whisper to us again O Blessed One ...
remind us of what is important ...
hear us in our moments of weakness,
and hold us when we stumble ...
Call to us over the clamour and the tumult ...
Speak to us with love and care ...
and bless us with your gift of Shalom ...
We yearn for peace in a world torn apart ...
We crave comfort in a world that offers none ...
We stumble through the darkness searching for light ...
And through it all you are still there ...
loving us ...
caring for us ...
holding us ...
and strengthening us ...
Hear our prayers O Blessed One,
and be with us today and always,
as we seek your strength and comfort,
trusting always in your grace and love ...
In your name we pray ... AMEN.
