Everyone's Prayer

Everyone's Prayer Let us all join hands and pray for eachother today. Some of us are sick. Some of us have problems. Some of us are married. some of us are not. but we all go through rough times in this life. Today - we will get together and bow our heads before GOD. We thank you GOD for the blessings you have given us. We know that you give us more then what we deserve. We thank you too, for the problems we have. They make us come and seek you. Sometimes Disasters happen and we wonder - why. If they happen some where else, we think that we are safe. But when they happen close to home - we don't know where to turn. Give us the wisdom, give us the courage, give us the strength we need to help our sisters and brothers. We ask you to have mercy on the soildiers at WAR. Have mercy on the ones in the hospital, the ones that are bed ridden at home. Have mercy on the children that are abused everyday, on the homeless person, that dosen't have something to eat. Have mercy on the people in jail and the ones in prison too. Please JESUS help us not to JUDGE others, so that we too - won't be JUDGED. Help us to be MERCIFUL of one another. Help us to be a better person, then what we were yesterday . AMEN....

Lucilla... this has to be the most honest-from-the-bottom-of-your-heart prayers I've ever heard. And it's true, we have a false sense of security when something horrible happens so far away. Never knowing it's just as likely to come very close to you. I hope you continue in this attitude - it's a rarity to find people that still think this way!
