Prayer for October 2024

Dear Lord,

God of Grace and Mercy, as we move on through Autumn,

as the temperature drops and as we watch the colours on the

trees change, the leaves begin to drop, we marvel at all you have

provided us with. This time of change can also be a time of worry

for those among us who live alone, as the daylight hours reduce.

As darkness envelopes us, help us to remember the light you

bring us, the warmth we will get from our Lord Jesus as the costs

of heating our homes goes up. Help us to keep in mind your

unconditional love at a time when all we see on news outlets

is the hatred and violence in so many parts of the world,

people who wish only to harm other people, just because of who

they are or where they live.

As we move on towards the season of Advent, when we

celebrate the birth of your son and all he means for us. We ask
that you help us all to embrace everything that Jesus taught when
he walked this amazing place we call Earth.

Lord, God of “if only”: - If only all people lived their lives with
just a small amount of tolerance, as Jesus demonstrated.
If only all people can show a small amount of love,
as Jesus taught us in all his teachings.
If only every one of us could show some understanding,
just as Jesus did with the individuals he interacted with
on a daily basis.
Lord, Father of love, we look for peace when it seems all we
witness is war.
We look for love when it feels like all we witness is hatred.
We look for sympathy and understanding when it appears all we
see is Intolerance.
Father, we look for you, when that thought of “If only” is at the
forefront of our minds.

Amen.
