Prayer At the Time of the COVID-19 Pandemic
Jesus, who promised to remain with us always, when information overwhelms us and fear overtakes us, speak to us again those comforting words, “Peace be with you.” Though we cannot be physically close to others, give us the ability and courage to love as well as we can, since “perfect love casts out all fear.” Direct your caring gaze on doctors, nurses, CNAs researchers and all safety personnel and all who are working to make our lives a bit easier through this pandemic. Come to strengthen the sick, the vulnerable and comfort those who are grief stricken. And when the pandemic has passed, and this frightening crisis is resolved, teach us to know You more certainly as our dearest friend and our only Hope. You live and reign with the Creator and the Holy Spirit, as the Trinity, forever and ever. Amen.
