Prayer for Week of April 27

Lord God,
We in the United States are inspired by how you are using our friends in Poland to spread your love and peace and hope in the midst of tragedy and heartache. We pray for strength and courage as you continue to lift up your faithful servants during this difficult time.

Jesus said, "Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid." 

        Mark 6:50

"Pray without ceasing..."  
        1 Thessalonians 5:17


"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer."
       Romans 12:12
 

Faithful Hearts in the Midst of Tragedy

God of Grace and Love, hear our prayers.

Our hearts go out to our friends in Poland. We pray for the many family members who lost loved ones in the plane crash.  For those family members Lord, we ask for your comfort and your peace, the peace that passes all understanding. For the people of Poland we ask for strength and wisdom and courage in the midst of uncertainty and sadness. Give the nation stability and hope as they walk in your love, today and all days. 


"Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth nor any other created thing shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."  Romans 8: 37-39

“Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. This I declare about the Lord: he is my God, and I trust him.”  Psalm 91:1-2
