"Katrina has given us an opportunity to reassess and correct our course, both in our private lives and as a nation. This prayer offers our minds up to God so we may be used as tools to implement this much needed change, so that personal and collective pain may be healed."


Prayer For Healing After Hurricane Katrina

Dear God,

This is a moment of crisis,
A moment of pain
And opportunity.

The past is washed away.
Homes are washed away.
Jobs are washed away.
Lives are washed away.

It could be
—my past
—my home
—my job
—my life

Or the lives of my family and friends.

I must believe the lesson of Katrina
Is compassion.

For I have seen the poverty she revealed.
I have seen the inequities she magnified.
I have seen the distance between Americans
That separates us from You.

Use me, dear Lord, as Your voice of change.
Use me, dear Lord, as Your loving heart.
Use me, dear Lord, as Your hand that rebuilds

As our nation is recreated
With love and understanding
Of what is important.

We now learn through joy and love
As opposed to pain, suffering, punishment and guilt.

Bravery and forgiveness,
Giving and sharing
Loving and being together
These are the important things in this life.

My mind is filled with thoughts of this
As I work to bring Your Light here, to earth.

Amen.
