A prayer for our friends

Merciful Father,

Thank You for the friendships You have brought into our lives and for blessing us. I pray, Father, that you would grant us the strength to support each other through trials, tribulations, and triumphs. Lord, help us be patient, kind, and understanding when facing life's difficulties.  May we always be there for one another with a non-judgmental ear, a listening ear, and a comforting presence that reflects your love and mercy. Guide our hearts to forgive and forget any wrongs, to have the grace to foster a stronger bond each day. Let our friendships reflect Your love, bringing joy and peace into our lives and Your glory, love, and mercy.

In the precious and lovely name above all names, Christ Jesus, Amen.
