Our Prayers
“I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, and in his word I hope; my soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.”
Psalm 130:5-6
Lord God, thank you that you are with us in times of waiting. We wait for many things - for exam results or test results; for an operation or for a new baby; for a holiday or financial difficulties to end; and we long for peace Help us to trust you in times of waiting, that your goodness will be revealed. For your name’s sake, amen.
