Safeguarding
Prayer for today
O Lord God,
Hear our confessions,
for we are discouraged, in the depth of this pandemic.
Our dreams, and plans, have come to nothing.
We have become really good at complaining, and even better at worrying;
and we are prone to questioning your goodness, and your power to make things right.
Assure us O Lord, of your presence with us;
and of your forgiveness.
Encourage us to keep on believing,
and open our eyes to see your presence around us.
We praise you for you are faithful God,
who gave us Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen
Thought for the day (reflecting on Genesis 50:20) We cannot see the whole story until it is done. Seven months into a pandemic we are weary of it all, tired of the restrictions; but one day we will look back it and we will see God’s hand upon it all. Not that God caused this pandemic, but that God is able to take a terrible situation and use it for good.
