Prayers

For Strength

Dear Lord, give me strength and courage to walk this walk.
Please hold my hand and stay by my side.
Give me understanding and let me see the path that You have chosen so that I might have peace.
Keep me strong and help me do whatever it is that You wish me to do.
Help me accept that Thy will be done.

A Prayer for Healing

Thank you for the gift of our child and for the seven years we have been privileged to have had him/her.
Dear God, please heal our child. Save his/her life. If he/she is not to live, please Lord, stay with us and hold our hands.
Be with us and guide us, and show us what this is all about.
We will not blame or forsake You.
We need You and we ask for You to be with us constantly.
We will find something good in this. And that is a hard thing to do.
But it is the right thing to do.
Above all, Thy will be done.
