Dear God,

Be with the weak, as well as the strong. Be with those who cry out in hopelessness and helplessness and ease their pain and suffering. Be with the ones who are angry and feel abandoned, forgotten and betrayed. Be with the nonbelievers who have lost their way, and the countless others who are desperate for a new way of life. Help them hear what they need to hear, see what they need to see, and intuit what they need to intuit. And it is a New Day when all can call upon the Name of God and be delivered. Thank-you and Amen.

“Defend the poor and fatherless; Do justice to the afflicted and needy. Deliver the poor and needy; Free them from the hand of the wicked. They do not know, nor do they understand; They walk about in darkness; All the foundations of the earth are unstable. I said, ‘You are gods, And all of you are children of the Most High. But you shall die like men, And fall like one of the princes.’ Arise, O God, judge the earth; For You shall inherit all nations.” Psalm 82:3-8

And the wicked shall turn and see the evil of their ways.
