"When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise— in God I trust and am not afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?" - Psalm 56:3-4

English Creator, Open my eyes, let me see always that you love us when there are days that are cloudy and where people are suffering. Let me listen well to hear your goodness always when there is the great noise of bombing by those who do not care about people. It is the wish that your mercy will extinguish the fire of punishment they have against people. Make the smoke of fragrant grasses to wipe (smudging) clean the earth of fires and smoke that kill us. It is the wish to find and drink good water because the clouds are full of toxic smoke. Jesus, you who make bad things disappear and you who heal people, it is not a dangerous road, the good Word/news that you teach. You give us everything; your outstretched hands help and heal us and settle the storms of what is cruel. And it is the wish for peace all over Earth. Let it be so.
