This prayer was sent to me by Dr. Jim Denison….

“Prayer for a Pandemic”

To that end, I’d like to close by inviting you to share with me a prayer that a dear friend forwarded to my wife over the weekend. It is titled “Prayer for a Pandemic” by Dr. Cameron Wiggins Bellm of Seattle, Washington:

May we who are merely inconvenienced

Remember those whose lives are at stake.

Remember those whose lives are at stake.

May we who have no risk factors

Remember those most vulnerable.

May we who have the luxury of working from home

Remember those who must choose between preserving their health or making their rent.

May we who have the flexibility to care for our children when their schools close

Remember those who have no options.

May we who have had to cancel our trips

Remember those that have no safe place to go.

May we who are losing our margin money in the tumult of the economic market

Remember those who have no margin at all.

May we who settle in for a quarantine at home

Remember those who have no home.

As fear grips our country,

Let us choose love.

During this time when we cannot physically wrap our arms around each other,

Let us yet find ways to be the loving embrace of God to our neighbors.

Amen.

I just received this message from Former Congressman and now Pastor Bill Redmond of Los Alamos, NM, Bill is one of my HEROES OF FAITH!!! PTL!! Bill is pictured above at last years National Day of Prayer in Albuquerque.
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
The link below was a blessing to me so I thought I’d share. Please pass on to encourage others as well.
In His eternal love and grace we abide,

Bill Redmond
