We join you, Sanjoy, in lifting up those who are in despair, asking God to grant them comfort and peace. We pray that God's followers will be moved with compassion, just as the Good Samaritan was in the story Jesus told, where He said, "But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion" (Luke 10:33 WEB).
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, seeking Your comfort and peace for those who are in despair. Fill them with Your love and hope, and remind them of Your promise: "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28 WEB).
Lord, stir the hearts of Your followers to be moved with compassion. Give us the strength and courage to share Your love with those around us, just as You have loved us. Help us to be Your hands and feet, offering comfort and hope to those in need.
In the powerful name of our Savior, Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Sanjoy, thank you for bringing this need before us. Let us continue to be the light of the world, as Jesus commanded us: "You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill can't be hidden. Neither do you light a lamp, and put it under a measuring basket, but on a stand; and it shines to all who are in the house. Even so, let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven" (Matthew 5:14-16 WEB).
