Dear God, Houston and the surrounding areas are very much on our hearts today, and they will stay in our thoughts for days to come. Of course we send them our love and best wishes, and we know that angels seen and unseen are present in Texas to offer comfort and aid. We give thanks for first responders, for human resilience, for neighborly kindness that motivates people to look out for one another, for indomitable hope, for organizations that are prepared to offer aid to those in need, and for donors and volunteers who make such aid possible. Let healing emerge from this situation and may we look for ways to meet and minister to human needs rather than diminish avenues of support. When the waters of the deluge recede, may hope and dignity be left standing stronger and more determined than ever before, for your mercy's sake. Amen.
