A Veterans Day prayer

Send a link to a friend

"

God of all nations, you are our Strength and Shield. We give you thanks today
for the devotion and courage of all those who have offered military service
for this country …

We ask today that you would lift up by your Spirit those who are now at war;
encourage and heal those in hospitals or mending their wounds at home;
guard those in any need or trouble; hold safely in your hands all military
families and bring the returning troops to joyful reunion and tranquil life
at home. Give to us, your people, grateful hearts and a united will to honor
these men and women and hold them always in our love and our prayers
until your world is perfected in peace and all wars cease. Through Jesus Christ,
our Savior. Amen.

 

 —Rev. Dr. Jennifer Phillips
