Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up a special request for this upcoming 4th of July. Lord, we ask for Your protection over all pets during the fireworks celebrations. The loud noises can be terrifying for them, and we pray that pet owners will take the necessary steps to keep their beloved animals safe. May they remember to put their names, addresses, and phone numbers on their pets' collars and bring them inside to avoid any distress or the risk of them running away.
We also lift up those who suffer from PTSD, asking for Your peace and comfort to surround them during this time. The noise of fireworks can be particularly triggering, and we pray that You will provide them with the strength and support they need to get through it.
Thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your loving care and protection.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
