Prayer for April 20, 2021

Loving God, be with those who are struggling this day.  The time in which we find ourselves has been challenging for most everyone, and there are many for whom their anxiety and depression have been amplified by the challenges we are facing.  Be with those who are called to aid and council people during this time, as the increased pressure faced by people right now has made it so that they are challenged in recharging their batteries as they are called to do more and more for their clients.  Help all of them to feel your presence during this time where many feel so alone.  May we also be acutely aware of the times when we are called to be present to others and show your love through our actions.  All this we ask in your Name O God.  Amen.
