Jesus,
You're with us.
Though you are not seen,
We know that you stay by our side.

To leap and dance again.

Prayer for a friend's sick child

Everlasting Father,

I pray for my dear friend who is so concerned for her child.
O Lord come and bring strength to her unsettled mind.
Breathe in gentle words of truth, comfort and reassurance.
Be ever present beside her as she cares for her precious one.
I pray that you would anoint her words so that they bring Heavens peace and love.
Come impart great wisdom into her thoughts and actions
And hear her every whispered prayer.
O Lord let your presence be like a blanket of comfort around her.
May you answer her prayers of healing and restoration.

Amen.
