Dear God, because of death, there are those who are living their lives without their partners of many years. Their most voiced lament is, “I’m lonely.” They now live alone, eat alone, sleep alone, and venture out alone. Their heartbreak is keen; their grief tear-filled. Lord, may they come to know that when they feel most alone, you are with them. May they feel your presence as surely as they once felt the presence of their loved ones. May they know that although they are lonely, they are still loved. Help us to realize our neighbour’s plight and to reach out to those who need a tender touch. Amen.

My Precious Life 
I cried as I read this prayer! The older we get, the more folks we come to know who need this prayer. Thanks.

Thank you, Trish. Someone at church on Sunday told me “I’m lonely” when I asked “How are you?” Hence the prayer.
Amen!
