Precious God, we remember this day with sorrow. We remember it with heartache, pain, and despair. Lives lost and visions of destruction linger with us.
Lift up our faces. Take the tears from our eyes. Lighten our hearts. Strengthen and restore us with your power and grace.
Psalm 147:3 declares that you, “heal the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds.” Be our God. Be a stronghold in time of trial. Be our redeemer, comforter, and friend.
Let your healing mercy be a salve upon our hearts. Allow it to rain down from heaven and minister to our hurt and pain. Sustain us with your peace and grace.
Heavenly Father may we always find our strength in you.
