Author of truth, you are the strength of our hearts. In faith we pray: Encourage us in our affliction, O God. 

Save us from envy, and let us find our joy in you and in living the Gospel.  

Encourage us in our affliction, O God. 

Pour your grace of love and right judgment upon those who are tempted to incur harm on others.  

Encourage us in our affliction, O God. 

Lead all people to heaven, especially those who are most in need of your mercy.  

Encourage us in our affliction, O God. 

Our Father . . . 

May God open the eyes of our hearts so we may know fully the hope we possess in Jesus Christ, our way to eternal life. Amen.
