Prayer

This week we celebrate Refugee Week. Please keep all refugees in your thoughts and prayers this week.

Lord 

May justice flow like a river, reaching barren lands and sun scorched deserts where people feel forgotten and hopeless,

Let your water of life comfort them where children feel abandoned or abused.

Let your water of life protect them where communities suffer at the hands of prejudice, 

Let your water of life shield them Lord, we ask for a mighty downpour from Heaven.

May your sons and daughters hear your voice. 

May we live as you lead us to live. Go as you bid us to go. Serve as you inspire us to serve. Give as you teach us to give.

Until the earth is covered with the glory of God. As the waters cover the sea.

Amen.
