Prayer During Recession


In this time of recession,

we remember all those who have financial problems

and are finding life difficult.


We hold before You, O Lord,

all those who are fearful for their jobs,

all those who are desperately looking for work

and all those who have become depressed

and have given up looking.


May Your Holy Spirit

come among us to heal the tensions

of this time and calm the many fears.


And with Christ by our side,

make us aware of each other's troubles

so that we mayreach out our hands

with His friendship and

give unstintinglyof His love.


AMEN
