Caring God, you fashion us in your image and likeness. In hope we pray:
Guide us, O God.
Give discernment and direction to those who are making difficult decisions.
Guide us, O God.
Open our hearts to receive your gifts with gratitude and share them with generosity.
Guide us, O God.
Show your loving-kindness on those who are depressed, discouraged, or lonely.
Guide us, O God.
Our Father . . .
May the peace of Christ reign in our hearts, through faith, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
