A PRAYER FOR THOSE SUFFERING LOSS DUE TO HURRICANE KATRINA

Dear Father,
Our hearts are heavy and our attentions are distracted by all the heartache that so many people are experiencing due to Hurricane Katrina. We grieve over the devastating losses that throngs of people have encountered. It is hard for us to imagine how this catastrophic event has affected so many people.

Lord, even at this moment, we know that there are so many who are enduring physical and emotional pain and who carry heavy burdens for family members and friends. So, Lord, help us to be ready communicators and encouragers of Your love to those in deep and desperate need.

May this be our prayer in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Now may the God of hope fill you with peace and comfort as you trust in Him.


Rev. David L. Drumel, vice president of Pastoral Care, Baptist Memorial Health Care
