A Heart Felt Prayer For Nigeria by Teekay777: 8:20am On Jun 05, 2012
LET US PRAY**

Dear God:
Thou who has been our help in ages past, thou who dispenses your comfort to all those who mourn. We seek your grace to strengthen us at this moment of anguish for our country.

Wipe away the blinding tears that plummet down our cheeks like gushing streams of an overflowing riverbank. Our heavy hearts still search for the solace of your guidance through the maze of pain and the myriad of complex issues such tragedy releases.

Fill the arms of mothers left empty and heal the hearts of fathers whose ears strain to remember the sound of fading laughter and frolic of children now gone. Wrap your arms around those who lost
wives and husbands, parents, friends and confidantes on this day of catastrophic espionage. Let this event turn out to be the catalyst that reveals the best in our human hearts as a nation, to love each other inspite of tribal or religious differences.

In spite of such pain we honor you as the God who is able to help us endure what we now think is impossible. Thank you for those of us who remain, it could have been worse. For the splendor of sunsets and the brilliance of sunrise, we thank you.

Grant unto us new friends and confidantes, give us a renewed sense of purpose. Like stars in our night give us light in the midst of dark places. Watch over us with your omniscient eyes granting us your continued protection over the masterMinds of terrorism: Boko Haram remains unrelenting.

In the true spirit of our faith, we also
pray for the enemies of our national unity. Let the message of your love and light extend not only to those who mourn but to those who hate that they might realize that hate will not replace the better choice of debate nor will destruction reconstruct the common chord of our shared brotherhood as human beings.

Lord, teach Nigerians to love each other as much as they profess to love you. We pray for President GEJ for focus, courage and godly vision.

In Jesus Christ's name we pray. Amen!

God bless Nigeria!

(Kindly append your 'Amen' to this prayer, let's show our agreement. Send to someone who is hurting as well).
