Sun of righteousness

Wednesday of the Fourth Week of Advent

He shall have pity on the lowly and poor;
he shall preserve the lives of the needy.
Psalm 72:13



Today began as most Wednesdays have for over a year now, with healing prayer.  Our zoom prayer group began as a response to someone who was hospitalized in August of 2020, when no one could with confidence safely gather in person or visit health care facilities. We found comfort and strength in gathering then, and still do.

Each week we pray for those who have asked for our prayers, for those we know of who are suffering, and for each other. And we pray for the world.

God’s merciful healing has been evident to us; praying together has deepened our faith and our friendships. And with the birth of our Savior now just a few steps away, we know more clearly that God’s will for all people is health and salvation. The sun of righteousness comes with healing in its wings.
