November The Second

LOVING beings, a small child is very ill.
You love all children.
Bring healing to this child who is not well.
Help her doctors decide on the best treatment.
Stay by her side and comfort her - sooth her fevered brow - and
Give her parents the strength to wait through this stressful time.
We would hold your loving hands and recall your soothing words
Of faith, hope and love.
Keep us ever mindful of Your loving presence and
Bless us with Your powerful healing and comfort us also.
Thank you for hearing our prayer!
