Into our broken world you came, Lord Jesus. You embraced our darkness, even though you are pure light.
COVID – Prayer-14: Waiting for the Lord’s Time
Dear Lord, our God,
These days, we have
been waiting for the lock-down to be lifted, so that we can travel freely, explore
the streets and stores, meet with friends and family and continue to catch up
with our commitments, assignments and exams. Sometimes, Lord, this waiting has
been difficult, worrisome, exhausting and frustrating.
COVID – Prayer-13: Change in Our Lives
Lord, our God,
You have asked us to get into a “Noah’s Ark” these days, an ark that was made according to a particular size, design, shape and material. We were asked to make a journey of uncertain length, floating in unknown waters, not knowing where it would go and when it would end and how we would survive. We were only asked to trust in the Lord. Forty days and forty nights it rained, the winds swayed and tossed the boat like a toy in the turbulent waters. We were only asked to trust in the Lord.

COVID- Prayer 11: Prayer for Peace and Happiness
COVID Prayer – 11 - Prayer for Peace and Happiness
Lord our God,
There is always some kind of longing in us. Essentially, it is a longing for happiness and contentment.
So, when there are problems at work, we long for solutions and to be free from trouble so that we can be productive and effective at work.

Ezekiel 37:21-28 / John
11:45-56
Jesus does remarkable things: Many people
put their trust in him.
There’s
a scene in My Fair Lady in which Eliza
Doolittle grows weary of Freddy’s daily letters, telling her how much he loves
her. In a burst of frustration, she begins to sing the song “Show Me.” In the
song she says she’s sick of words. She’s sick of all this talk of stars
“burning above.” “If there’s really any love burning in your heart, show me.” (adapted). Jesus had done everything he could do to show the Jews his love for them.
Some Jews eventually saw it and “began to believe in him”; many others did not.
COVID Prayer 10 – Pray for Healing
Lord
our God, you alone are worthy of honour, glory, and praise. With You, we can
overcome every storm—including the global impact COVID-19 is having on our
world.
