A Prayer--Great is Your love, Oh Lord


Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your great love for us. 
Reply:  Great is your loving kindness, Oh Lord.
Jesus, we thank You, for dying on the cross; and then raising up from the dead to become our Saviour.  Thank you for sending us the Holy Spirit to live in our hearts.

Holy Spirit teach us know how to accept Your love and share it with others. 
May we give:
our time to listen;
our hands to acts of service;
our tongues to words of kindness and hope
our thoughts with each gift we give
our affection with gentleness and purity

Please send healing to the sick and food to the hungry.
Give wisdom to doctors, nurses and veterinarians as they treat those around the world who need medicine, care and comfort.  Bless those who teach others how to grow food.  Bless those who dig wells for pure water.  Bless missionaries who teach others about Your love.  Give them all everything they need to work well.

Dear Father, help those who are sad to find happiness again. 
To those who have lost their jobs, please give them new work.  To those who are far from home, give them friends.  Go those who have said good-bye to a dear one who has died, may they find healing through their tears.

Thank You for spring time to remind us of new life.  Thank you for:
The days that grow longer;
The buds that grow into leaves;
The flowers that burst open with red, yellow, purple, white and orange.
The sun that grows warmer and helps the grass turn green again.

Show us how to make Your love famous.  Amen
