O, I said to the Lord this morning,O God, yet another phone call about tragedy, loss, poor prognosis, emergency surgery, tumors, pain and suffering. What can I say?
There is yet another sound bite of misfortune and misspent opportunities. What can I say? So many are struggling with public success and private failure or public success and public failure. What can I say? Too many issues tug at the heart with no easy solutions. What can I say?
There are yet too many crises in too many places with too many people we care about and a multitude of people we do not know. What can I say?
God said to me, Daughter, it’s not what you say it is what you pray.
So, I prayed, God of grace and glory, hear the cries of your people. Where healing is needed, dispense it now, in Jesus name, where help is needed, give it now in the name of Jesus. Where shelter is needed, provide now in the name of Jesus, and where there is a need for sustenance, supply it now, in the name of Jesus.
In the name of Jesus, let your healing waters flow, let your love abide and your mercy endure forever. Amen.
