Today, we pray for the lonely

Dear God, loneliness is the first thing that Your eyes seemed as not right. We pray for those among us who are living alone in this world – the singles, the married singles, the elderly, the ostracised and the rejected. We pray that Your presence will surround us when we are at our loneliest point in our lives. We pray that You will provide us with the right partners to share Your loving touch and voice with. Give us the grace and the hearts to seek out the lonely and be a genuine friend. Amen.

Today, we pray for those of us struggling to pray

Lord Jesus, today we entrust to Your Sacred Heart, each person around the world who is struggling to pray. Whether we are unable to pray because of a lack of time or a lack of spiritual intimacy with You, may Your one touch heal us all. Fill us with peace from You, Father God. May we never give up when our emotions or circumstances lie to us that You are not present. May Your angels surround us and nudge us back to You. Fill us with Your Holy Spirit. Amen.

Today, we pray for new beginnings

Lord Jesus, on this day we bring to You our brothers and sisters who are awaiting new beginnings. We pray that they are blessed mightily with breakthroughs – in their spiritual walk, family life, finances, careers, health, answers to long lost prayers and anything they may need it for – in life. We pray that a fresh start would come to each one of us, timely and overwhelming. Amen.

Today, we pray for those who have caused us harm

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You each and every person who has broken our hearts, injured us physically or emotionally or hurt our dear ones. Lord, we make a decision to forgive. Please take hold of each piece of our shattered hearts and make them whole again. Pour forth Your Spirit and give us the complete healing that we need so badly. Wipe our tears tonight, when we are totally alone in this pain. Amen.

Today, we pray for sick children

Lord Jesus, today we surrender to You babies and children who are suffering and in pain. Heal their emotional and physical wounds, Lord. When they cry out, may Your angels rush to their aid and soothe their brows. Give them the assurance that You are carrying them in Your precious arms. When tears flow, give their families Your strength, love and grace. May no child go to bed tonight, feeling any despair or suffering. Amen.
