Pray with the global church

Most High God, we lift up the grieving community in Karen State where an attack has taken precious lives at a Christian Bible school. You are close to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit — be their refuge and strength amid this sorrow. Pour out Your comfort upon families mourning their lost children, and heal those who have been injured in body and spirit. Establish peace in Myanmar, and restrain the hand of violence from tearing through these communities again. Reveal Jesus to soldiers and leaders who know not what they do, turning hearts of stone into hearts of flesh. Let the light of the Gospel shine brighter through Your people even now. We ask it through Jesus our Lord, Amen.
