Today, we pray for those in pain

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You those of us who are suffering. Many of our brothers and sisters are in physical and emotional bondage. We pray that Your Word will become the solace they need. We pray that Christians around the world do not merely talk the talk, but walk the walk – to soothe others who are hurting and right now, as time is running out. May we never merely talk about You without first bringing comfort those closest to us. May the loneliest of us find hope, Jesus. Touch their brows and heal our hearts. May Your divine love bring healing to all the wounds in our minds and bodies. Help us, Lord. Amen.
