January 21st

“When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?”

Psalm 8:3-4

Lord Jesus,

We thank you that long before the pandemic began you were mindful of us and you cared for us. We thank you that each person is known by you. When you were putting the moon and the stars in their place you were thinking of us and had a plan for us.

We pray today for those affected by Storm Christoph, with a large number of homes and businesses evacuated over the last few days. Take care of each person who has lost so much during these floods, with so many of them already struggling because of the pandemic may they know that you are close. We also pray for the emergency services who are going into these dangerous situations to help get people out, we pray that they are also kept safe.

Amen
