Lord, please look fondly upon this group of mine and their family and friends. Ease their suffering and pain. Allow me to know the words to speak to help them along the paths they tread, so that I may be of some comfort in their time of need. Allow me, Lord, to be your instrument, and to show them your love, and mercy. Help me, Lord, to not stray from the path but to help others along it. Amen.
