Be with those who are struggling silently, O God. We don’t always know the burdens that those around us are carrying. Help us to be a supportive and loving presence to those we are with today. May they give everyone we encounter our full attention and make their day as best we can. May we find joy and wonder in the world around us and may that joy be infectious to those around us. Let us laugh with abandon and sing whatever song you have given us this day. All this we ask in your Name. Amen
