Evening Prayer – 14 April 2016

  
After a long and full day of travel from New Orleans to Estes Park and a doctor’s appointment for me and rest for Denise, we are settled in. Pixie is happy to be home as well!

  
Tonight, O Lord, the Vesper Lights flicker

Yet I think of the people on the streets

Winfield and countless others in New Orleans

James and so many in Mobile

The nameless ones on the streets of Boulder

The streets of Denver and Fort Collins

Even the streets of Estes Park

I don’t know their names, Lord

Yet you know each one as a precious child

Your precious child made in your image

Society chooses to look the other way

Society says they are all scammers

While some may be, so many are not

They are the tired and poor

They are the ones with psychological issues

They are the invisible ones

Lord, may I see in their faces Imago Dei

Lord, may I see them as my sisters and brothers

I thank you for those like my dear Dianne

For those like my dear friend Tim

For all the care givers…

Who know them by name

May we never forget! We are all your children!

For them I lift this prayer tonight

Dona Nobis Pacem

Grant Us Peace
A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre as he also prays for healing for his sweet wife ❤️❤️
