A Prayer For Disaster Victims
Almighty and Merciful God, Father of all creation;
Hear our Prayer
Mother Nature who is seated at your left hand has delivered her vengeance
upon your creation in the form of Massive Earthquakes in the last two months,
whereupon many thousands of your children have perished; Lord in your Mercy,
Hear our Prayer
Countless hundreds of thousands have been left homeless, starving, bewildered,
many thousands of children have lost their parents, brothers and sisters left alone,
Lord in your Mercy;
Hear our Prayer
Devastation of homes and property where insurance does not exist, where building
codes do not require standards to make buildings be built to withstand such power.
Where only ruin is left in the wake of Mother Natures wrath, Why has she done so?
Lord in your Mercy;
Hear our Prayer
Father we ask you to shine your light perpetual, your Merciful Grace, your undying Love
to guide those who are giving aid to give so freely, with love in their hearts, with
caring souls.
Lord in your Mercy;
Hear our Prayer
We ask that you also grant those who receive aid also see your perpetual light and guidance
to accept the offered aid without malice, without greed, without violence but only with
open arms, open hearts, open souls and Love in their hearts for the gift of your Love.
Lord in your Mercy;
Hear our Prayer
And Father one last thing, Please grant us the dignity and grace to not turn away from
those children who are so desperately in need, so that we may if only Pray for them that
we do so with open and Loving hearts as you would have us do. Lord in your Mercy;
Hear our Prayer
May the Almighty Father of all Creation Shine His Perpetual light upon all of you !
In the name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
Hear My Prayer
