Almighty God, creator of all that is, we praise You for this world in which You have called us be Your people. We thank You for the love we have known, the comfort we have enjoyed, the happiness we have tasted. Lord You have called us to take up our cross and follow You - show us what it means to live a life marked by both sacrifice and joy. By Your grace, dear God, fill us so with Your Holy Spirit, that as sure as day follows night, so too will the presence of Your people bring love into our world; and be Your means of answering our prayer. So do we pray this day, O God, for those who feel themselves without love, comfort or happiness. For those whose relationships have made them less human, who find it hard to trust and to be trustworthy. For those who have been abused or neglected. Our prayer, Lord GOD, is that they may know the reality of Your loving-presence, as we do; and that You may, by Your Holy Spirit infuse their lives to bring forth healing. In the matchless name of Jesus the Christ, we do pray and declare it all. Amen.
