Prayer of Protection
The light of God surrounds you,
The love of God enfolds you,
The power of God protects you,
The presence of God watches over you.
Wherever you are, God is.
~James Dillet Freeman, written during World War II

I give thanks...
For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food, for love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Father, Mother, God,
Thank you for your presence during the hard and mean days.
For then we have you to lean upon.

Thank you for your presence during the bright and sunny days,
for then we can share that which we have with those who have less.

And thank you for your presence during the Holy Days,
for then we are able to celebrate you and our families and our friends.

For those who have no voice, we ask you to speak.
For those who feel unworthy, we ask you to pour your love out in waterfalls of tenderness.
For those who live in pain, we ask you to bathe them in the river of your healing.
For those who are lonely, we ask you to keep them company.
For those who are depressed, we ask you to shower upon them the light of hope.

Dear Creator, You, the borderless sea of substance,
we ask you to give to all the world that which we need most.........PEACE."
- Maya Angelou

For any situation:
Thank you, God, for the gift of my life,
for one more opportunity
to grow,
to heal, or
to celebrate.
