When You Don't Have The Words: 10 Prayers For COVID-19

DAY 11 OF 11

O God, gladly we live and move and have our being in you.

Yet always in the midst of this creation-glory,

we see sin’s shadow and feel death’s darkness:

around us in the earth, sea and sky, the abuse of matter; 

beside us in the broken, the hungry and the poor,

the betrayal of one another;

and often, deep within us, a striving against your Spirit. 

O Trinity of love,

forgive us that we may forgive one another,

heal us that we may be people of healing,

and renew us that we also may be makers of peace.
