O God,
bless our family and all its members and friends;
bind us together by your love.
Give us kindnes and patience to support each other;
and wisdom in all we do.
Let the gift of your peace come into our hearts
and remain with us.
May we rejoice in your blessings for all our days.
Amen.

I have another prayer for friends.
ReplyDeleteFor Friends
Lord, how life is brightened by friends!
They warm our lives with their smiles.
They keep us believing that life is worthwhile.
They carry us on days when our courage fails and comfort us when we are sad. They make our parties more enjoyable, our drudgery more tolerable, our discoveries more exciting and our loneliness more bearable.
They are honest with us when we are not honest with ourselves.
They let us grow in our own time.
They respect our feelings, even when they do not let us get away with snap judgments and foolish projects.
In a world where love seems lost, they love us.
Thank you for all of them!
Amen.
Peace, Pat M. a.k.a. ignorance
