Lord, today, we stand before You and ask that You shelter us from all harm that the world might throw at us. Protect us from the harm that the world’s darkness wishes for us to reside.

Help us to see that no matter how badly we may have sinned that it is never enough for You to turn away from us. Help us to see that truth so that we can hold on to it all of our days.

Please help us to realize that no matter what might happen in our lives, You are always there with open arms to welcome us when we run to You. Let us never be too afraid or too ashamed to run to You. Amen.
