Let us pray together:

God of all creation, you have promised to hear our cries.  You have promised to always come for us.  You have promised to love us.  Hear us now as we call out to you.  Hear us now as we open our hearts to you.  Hear us now as we thank you for intervening on our behalf through Jesus Christ.  Teach us to be patient as we wait for the glorious return of Your dear Son, and strengthen our resolve as we endure the pains and sufferings that this world throws at us.  Thank you for the gift of life you have given us through baptism; the very gift that gives us hope in this world.  May your name be praised always and forever. Amen!

God bless you this day and may you always know the love of God that is indeed surrounding you like pea soup fog.  Take comfort in the fact that you are never alone.  Take care.  -EDH-
