Holy and Triune God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, You meet us on the mountain, even when our faith is mixed with doubt. You call us beloved children, not because we are strong, but because your grace has claimed us. Lord Jesus, come near to all who need healing today. Bring peace to aching bodies, comfort to grieving hearts, courage to weary spirits, and hope to those standing at the edge of a new beginning. By your Holy Spirit, remind us that we are not slaves to fear, but children of God. Teach us to cry, “Abba, Father,” and to trust that we are heirs of your mercy, your promise, and your kingdom. Send us forward in your name, held by your love, strengthened by your presence, and renewed by your grace. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
