Dear God

I pray for those affected by the rain and flood.  Strengthen them Lord and please bring them all to safety.  I pray for those who are risking their lives to save people and for those with kind hearts to sacrificially and lovingly shared for those who are in need. At these trying times, may your people call on you and learn to surrender their lives to you as their Savior and Lord.

Thank you Lord, that we are safe.  This is a time when I realize more how petty my problems are compared to what most are going through right now.  And I am grateful even more of your blessings.

We ask all of these in Jesus mighty name.

Amen.
