Today, we pray for our fathers

Lord Jesus, we pray that You bless all the fathers and father figures in this world. Guide them to become good role models and the epitomes of love, hard work, integrity, dedication and honesty to their families. Let them truly know that the greatest they can do for their own children is to love their mothers. Help them to become a father like You are. Give them Your grace and patience to handle life and people, the vulnerable, Your loving way. Amen.

Today, we pray for the strangers we meet

May each person we meet see Jesus Christ in us. May Your Holy Spirit radiate and touch the lives of everyone we meet. Touch and heal them all, Lord Jesus; and may the light in them – man, woman and child – heal our own weary souls too. Let us all become Angels of Your Light in a broken world. Amen.

Having come down in a cloud, the LORD stood with Moses there and proclaimed his name, “LORD.” Thus the LORD passed before him and cried out, “The LORD, the LORD, a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in kindness and fidelity.” Moses at once bowed down to the ground in worship. Then he said, “If I find favor with you, O...
