Hello Friend, Bob Perry here.

O God of boundless power and profound mercy, we gather as a united community, drawing near to you with our hearts open and our spirits lifted.

In this moment of togetherness, our voices rise as one, merging into a harmonious plea highlighting our fundamental need for your divine assistance—a lifeline we all cherish, especially in times of uncertainty and struggle.

“Help us, O God.”

With reverence, we seek your infinite mercy, Lord Jesus, trusting that it will come to us at the right moment, whether swiftly or as part of a greater unfolding.

We come before you with humility, laying bare our human limitations: the frailties we experience in patience, the doubts that cloud our trust, and the wavering strength of our faith.

We trust in your perfect timing, knowing that your guidance and provision will be shown to us. We yearn for your wisdom to navigate these challenges and to inspire us to grow beyond our shortcomings.

May we cultivate a spirit of humility, nurturing a tenderness that breaks through the tough exterior of our pride.

We long for a more profound experience of your presence and a mighty outpouring of your grace in our lives, fully aware that our true strength lies in our reliance on you, particularly in moments when we feel the most vulnerable.

Lord, hear our prayer and our earnest cry for mercy.

In your unwavering faithfulness, come quickly to our aid.

Let the dawn of each new day awaken our heart with the assurance of your unfailing love, for we have entirely placed our trust in you.

Illuminate the path we are to follow, for we lay our lives in your compassionate hands, seeking your wisdom in every step.

Father God, you have a sacred blessing for us as your cherished people—a blessing that envelops us in your love, overflowing grace, and protective embrace that shields us from harm.

The LORD blesses and keeps us;

The LORD makes His face shine upon us, infusing our lives with warmth, kindness and favor;

The LORD turns His compassionate gaze toward us and grants us profound peace, purpose, and protection.

Shalom.

Amen.
