Lord, make us conduits of peace and healing today. Bring us to repentance for our blindness to the pain of others, for the pain we have caused and the pain we have ignored. Discomfort us and disturb us, O God, that we may open our hearts to compassion, empathy, and insight. Bless those who work for peace rather than vengeance and for unity rather than division. Bless the hands, hearts, and minds of doctors, nurses, and caregivers as they care for those who are ill or in pain. Give strength and comfort to those who rest within the grace and love of the Almighty, especially those we now name.
Amen.
