Comfort us, Lord, in our suffering,
so that we may be a source of comfort to those who are suffering.
Strengthen us, Lord, in our weakness,
so that we may a source of strength to the weak.
Calm, Lord, our anxious thoughts,
so that we might be a calming presence to those who are anxious.
Heal, Lord, our emotional wounds,
so that we might be a source of healing for others.
Amen.
