“In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.”
Romans : 8:26
Come to our Lord who…
- loves us, no matter what
- wipes away our tears and heals our brokenness
- is the Alpha and the Omega
Give thanks to our God for…
- not giving up on us as individuals, as a community, as a nation and as the world
- waiting patiently for our return to Him
- the healing and comfort He has brought us and others (name those known)
- our NHS, celebrating 72 years tending to the broken
Ask our Lord to…
- enable our nation to re-open all medical facilities for those struggling with health conditions (name those known)
- forgive us for thinking foolishly we can ‘go it alone’
- forgive us for taking the precious gifts of our family, church family and friends for granted
- help those in power make wise decisions in line with His will
- move hearts to support nations with no proper provision for Covid-19, such as Yemen
- bring safety to those in high risk areas like Leicester , Dumfries and Galloway
As we trust that…
- perfect love casts out fear
- you are the Lord who mends broken bodies, broken relationships and broken
In the blessed name of our Saviour,
Amen
