PRAYER

Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program

Mighty Father, maker of the universe and all that is in it,

There are billions of stars and galaxies and solar systems whirling through space.

There are wars and rumors of wars with storms and earthquakes and plagues and droughts and floods and crime and sin.

Yet, in the midst of your creation, you know my name; it is written on the palm of your hand.

Father God, you care for me. You cry over my missteps and forgive me. You guide and provide.

Thank you for your tender love and compassion.

Now, let’s go forth together, locked arm-in-arm, in step with each other, working for the abundant harvest.

All for the cause of Christ,

Amen
