PRAYER
The Chaplain, the Reverend Margaret Grun Kibben, offered the
following prayer:
Grant us Your grace, O God, this day and relieve us of the burdens we
bear, the weight of concern for our country, and the load of worry we
carry for our world. Even as we pray these words, our consciences are
overwhelmed by the weight of the reports of devastation in North
Carolina, Georgia, and Florida, just to name a few.
Only You can open the way and provide a means for restoration and
healing in those regions. Empower and inspire us to bear our
responsibility to carry the burdens of those who suffer from these
tragedies.
May we serve as Your hands and feet and give what we must and go
where You send us to care for Your people. May we serve as agents of
Your deliverance and a reassuring presence in support of the efforts of
aid workers and caregivers tending to this dire situation.
Dispel the fear and anxiety that get in the way of Your provision,
that we and all who are in need would receive the bounty of Your sure
and steadfast loving kindness.
In the hope found in Your name do we pray.
Amen.
