Dear God,
Lift the sick high on eagles’ wings, fill their minds with your truth and cover
their hearts with hope. Protect them always, may they feel safe and secure
beside you. Walk with them through each moment. Come be their strength
when they feel weak, be their counsel when they need comfort. Amen
