Walk Together - 30 Days of Prayer for Families with PTSD - Day 3

“The days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast” Matthew 9:15.


A beautiful reminder of the joy that we have in knowing Jesus. Some days might be hard. Tears may flow every now and again and it can feel at times that our joy is being suffocated or taken away from us, but at the end of the day we can celebrate because we know where our strength comes from.


Pray today that God sits down with you and shows you the plans that He has for your life. Pray today to find the strength to celebrate the small successes and to find the beauty in all seasons of life.


Prayer to move from Post-Traumatic Stress to Peace, Trust, Strength, and Discipline


Lord, thank you for surrounding us with your deep, deep love and covering us with your grace and mercy. We know that you want all of your children to live peaceful and prosperous lives. At times though, especially after someone has wronged us or we have been traumatized it is hard to move forward. We can get caught in a cycle of fear, worry, shame, and guilt that can distract us from walking with one another and You.


Help us to become so disciplined that we are consistently able to celebrate with you and lay everything at the foot of the cross trusting that You are working for our highest good. Help us to find the strength to refocus our time and energy on the love, peace, and joy that You have planned for us. We ask that where our heart and soul are in turmoil that you bring us back to peace. We especially pray for peace and strength for those families in Uvalde, TX as they mourn the loss of their loved ones. We love you and look forward to our continued journey with You as we walk together toward a life filled with more peace, trust, strength, and discipline.


Prayer of St. Francis


Lord, make me an instrument of your peace:

where there is hatred, let me sow love;

where there is injury, pardon;

where there is doubt, faith;

where there is despair, hope;

where there is darkness, light;

where there is sadness, joy.


O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek

to be consoled as to console,

to be understood as to understand,

to be loved as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive,

it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,

and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Amen.
