Heal, Provide, and Strengthen Our Families

Lord Jesus, healer and Savior, 
bring health and unity 
to your people in their families. 
Provide for all their needs with your abundance. 
Bring health and strength 
to your people in their weakness. 
Bring growth in wisdom,  
strength in faith and spirit, 
and growth and strength in body 
to children everywhere. 
Watch over the hearts 
of the weary and burdened, 
and direct them to cast their cares on you, 
that they respond to life’s troubles 
with patient endurance, 
and put away anxiety and anger. 
Give your people useful work that serves the good of others,
and provide for all our needs. 
Lift and bind your people everywhere 
in the bonds of holy love and prayer. 
Uplift, strengthen, and heal us all; 
you live and reign, now and forever. 
Amen.

One thought on “Heal, Provide, and Strengthen Our Families”

  1. I really like this prayer because it talks about the real problems families deal with today. It covers everything – health issues, emotional struggles, and money problems. In our fast-paced world where everyone’s doing their own thing, it’s nice to be reminded we can give our worries to something bigger than us. The way it focuses on bringing families together with pure love is exactly what my family needs right now. Thanks for sharing such a meaningful prayer!
