Lord, hear our prayer:

Our Lord, Redeemer and King, Father, we thank you that in a world that treats human beings as if we were simply numbers in a great machine, you call us by name and our every thought is completely known by you. We thank you not only for loving us, but also for your love which comes to us through the people we meet each day; for those we meet whose words and deeds, whose attitudes and values, whose thoughts and intentions, remind us of your concern for all your creatures. In the name of Christ and his unfailing love.

Amen.
