Isa 12:3 With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.
Isa 12:4 And you will say in that day: "Give thanks to the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the peoples, proclaim that his name is exalted.
Oh Lord, in quiet humility we present you with so many desperate petitions. We have little control in our lives, but you hold the world together by the power of your Word.
Heb 1:3 He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power.....
Col 1:17 And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
Please hold together these lives, and these broken bodies. Deliver us from the evil one, for yours is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory forever, Amen.
Comfort the hearts of the families. Give them hope.
Trust in God
(Bohemian Brethren)
The night is come, wherein at last we rest,
God order this and all things for the best!
Beneath His blessing fearless we may lie
Since He is nigh.
Drive evil thoughts and spirits far away,
Master, watch o'er us till the dawning day,
Body and soul alike from harm defend,
Thine angel send.
Let holy prayers and thoughts our latest be,
Let us awake with joy, still close to Thee,
In all serve Thee, in every deed and thought
Thy praise be sought.
Give to the sick as Thy beloved sleep,
And help the captive, comfort those who weep,
Care for the widows' and the orphans' woe,
Keep far our foe.
For we have none on whom for help to call,
Save Thee, O God in heaven, who car'st for all,
And wilt forsake them never, day or night,
Who love Thee right.
Father, Thy Name be praised, Thy Kingdom come,
Thy will be wrought as in our heavenly home,
Keep us in life, forgive our sins, deliver
Us now and ever! Amen.
Amen. Such loveliness in these posts and prayers; my heart leaps within me to be a part of this gathering.
