For A Stronger Faith

Loving God, we humbly ask that you bless your faithful everywhere!  Send down into our hearts the peace of heaven, and grant us peace in this life.  Give a richer life to all of us who are trying so hard to withstand the temptations of this life.  Deliver any of us who are in trouble because we took our eyes off of you.  Give hope to the hopeless and help to the helpless.  And forgive all of us for the sins we have committed, especially the sins of ommission.  Pardon and refresh each of us so that our faith might become stronger day by day because of your blessings.  In Jesus' name we do pray.  Amen.
