God of All Comfort, we bring before You the wounded hearts in Jordan, where gunmen opened fire on a church. You are close to the brokenhearted and save those crushed in spirit — breathe Your peace into this place of grief. Guard the minds of survivors like Sahar al-Halsa, and let Your comfort hold them firm as they grapple with trauma and fear. Reveal Jesus to all who witnessed this violence, turning hearts from despair to hope. Bring comfort to those mourning their loved ones, and let Your presence be their refuge amidst sorrow. Establish Your peace in these communities and advance Your kingdom through the lives of those who stand steadfast in faith. May Your light shine even in this darkness for the glory of Your name. Amen.
