Lord, hear our prayer:
Father in Heaven we pray for families whose love is being destroyed by jealousy, where people expect loving relationships simply to happen without any effort or commitment on their part each day. May the love of God renew their hope and their striving for peace. We pray for children who suffer the consequences of their parents’ failure to love and to care; for children whose lives are suffering the results of physical, mental or sexual abuse. May the caring, healing hand of Christ be upon them. Know God hears all our prayers, in Jesus’ name we pray.
Amen.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
