Prayer for Today: 7 June 2007

Precious All-Powerful Lord,

The days have been so beautiful this week, warm and full of sunshine and breezes. Yet from sharing and speaking with some of your children this week, I have heard experiences of pain, confusion, anguish and discouragement. Holy Lord, we cry out to you for help! We desperately need you to come close to us and strengthen us. We want to honor You, trust You and obey You, but in the midst of the realities of our lives this feels as if we are climbing a mountain each day.

May your unending love and acceptance be real to us in the midst of our pain. May your mercy and compassion be evident to us in small and large ways this very day. Please renew our strength through the power of Your Holy Spirit.


Blessed Lord, come quickly to aid us that we may glorify You this day. Amen.

28 Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.


29 He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.


30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;


31 but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.

Isaiah 40: 28-32 [New International Version]
