Our Prayer
Circle is for absolutely everyone,
man, woman or child, wherever you live or work in the world, whether you
are Christian or non-christian, a member of the many other religious groups
or claim no religious affiliation at all. EVERYONE
IS WELCOME AND INVITED TO JOIN IN!
Every
living being is a beautiful and blessed child of God, even those who have
lost their way and gone astray in life. No child is born evil, every child
is born needing the loving touch and care of a parent or carer. Don't be
afraid to hug. Parents hug your children; kids hug your parents - even
adult kids. Research is showing that many prisoners in care for serious
crime were never hugged, loved or nurtured as children. Never received
an encouraging word. Never felt loved or wanted. These are all basic needs
and society, parents and carers can make or break a child by giving or
withholding a loving smile, touch or word of encouragement. (See
Children)
Parents - pray for and with
your children.
Teachers - pray that your words
and methods encourage and develop children. See behind the tantrums and
disruption and try to find the hurts.
Youth Leaders and Social Workers
- pray for and with those in your care and see the beauty of God within
every person with whom you come into contact.
Church Ministers - pray that
you will always be good and faithful shepherds to your flocks, leading
in humility and by example.
Politicians - pray before every
decision, placing it in the hands of the Lord and under the guidance of
the Holy Spirit. Let no decision harm the weakest and most vulnerable in
society.
National Leaders - pray that
your leadership is fair to all, worthy of the position of responsibility
you hold and uplifting to all your people.
Business Folk - pray that all
your dealings with your workers and customers are fair and honest.
Workers - pray that you will
give an honest day's work to your employers with integrity in all you do.
Media Folk - pray that your
words and reportings are truthful, honest and transparent, fair and balanced.
Fire Officers - pray for and
with your colleagues daily to protect you all from danger and for those
who will call and depend on you for their safety.
Police Workers - pray for and
with your colleagues for their safety before you start each day's work.
Pray for all those with whom you will come into contact that you will have
the courage and strength to treat with the same respect and dignity you
would give a family member.
Prisoners - pray for and with
your fellow inmates for insight into your own hearts, repentance for any
wrongs you have done and forgiveness from the Lord and those whom you hurt
or harmed by your actions. Pray also for the courage to renounce your life
of crime and place your future in the hands of God to lead you on the right
path in life and towards Him.
Prison officers - pray for and
with the inmates, treating them with the same respect and dignity you would
any member of your own family, regardless of their attitude towards you.
Health Care Workers - pray for
and with your patients, placing all their ills in the gentle healing hands
of the Lord. Let no decision of yours ever remove that respect for life
from its very beginning to its natural end.
Scientists - pray that your
research will never cause harm to another living being, especially those
in the early stages of life. Respect life as a gift from God, not something
to be used for experimentation. Pray for a God-given enlightenment to find
the cures for illnesses and to respect the natural order of things.
Regardless of your personal
religious beliefs you must feel the pain and suffering of all those caught
in desperate situations. Let us plant this tiny mustard seed of prayer
and watch it grow into a tree so big it covers the whole world. |
