Tuesday Prayer...

The storm is passing over,
and yet there is devastation in its wake...
and in the wake
the waters surge
the power is out
branches from proud strong trees
are scattered...
for all those
still in harm's way,
we pray.
for all those
assessing loss,
we pray.
for all those
who have been rendered homeless,
or more homeless because of the storm
we pray.

we pray
for recovery, for hope, for help, for healing.

in awe
we pray,
amen.

It would be good to hear from those in the NE who were in the storm's pathway to check in and let us know how they are. You have all been in my prayers for the past few days.
