For Those Who Suffer

Almighty and merciful God, who is the help of the helpless: Look down with your mercy on all the victims of the recent tornados, comfort them n their loss, help them find peace of mind to overcome their grief; give them resources through our generosity and that of relief agencies to rebuild their lives once again; give them patience in their suffering, and hope through the outpouring os love from their neighbors;  grant them a future of happiness and a closer walk with you in the days ahead.  In Jesus' name.  Amen.
