Daybyday
Friday, May 10, 2024
Day by day we pray to God almighty, His is the auto and the finisher.
Lord our God, our Father in heaven, bless us who have become united in our hope in you and in our expectation of your help on this earth, where people live in all kinds of foolish ways. Bless your Word within us. Grant us your Holy Spirit to restore life and gladness to our hearts, even in grief and suffering.
