Prayer


A prayer after the terror attack in Florida from the Lutheran Church, Missouri Synod

"Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, we pray to You for the many shattered lives after this horrific shooting. Have mercy, Lord, have mercy.

"We know that it is the thief who comes only to steal and kill and destroy but Your Son came that we might have life and have it abundantly.

"Comfort in Your kindness all who grieve and let them find in You the only source of peace and forgiveness and eternal hope. Grant healing to those who have been injured and are receiving medical care.

"We pray You to bring an end to such horrible moments in our national history. We ask this in the name of Him who bore our every sin to the cross and who rose in triumph over the grave, even Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen."
