Prayers for those affected by Super Typhoon Haiyan
Lord, you who calmed the storm at sea, quiet the fears, ease the pain,
tend the grief, and light the darkness of your children affected by Haiyan.
In stunned silence, be their voice. In rages against the night, be
their balm. In bewilderment, be their hope. Lead rescuers to the lost,
shelter the waiting. Sustain those who work to make life's necessities
spring forth in this desert of gloom. Blanket the weary with your tender
touch. Shake us from our comforts to share out sisters and brothers'
sorrow and burden and assist and pray them into new life. We ask this in
the name of your Son, Jesus, who suffered and was raised to new life.
Amen.
