Merciful Lord, You know the needs of Emma’s daughter, and how she is anxious about the future. Using those around her, graciously reassure her that You love her immensely and have all of her needs in mind. May she redouble her efforts to find employment, and may that search reward her, Lord. Let her not forget to thank You each morning for the blessing of a new day, as no one but You grants such a gift. Father in Heaven, let her child(ren) be not a burden, but a blessing that will warm her heart as she faces each day. May their innocent faces inspire her to seek greater wisdom from You, O Source of all Wisdom. As we pray, send comfort upon her, easing her spirit and granting her increased faith and trust in You, her Divine Creator. We ask this through Christ, our Lord, Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy SPirit, One God for ever and ever. Amen! Alleluia!
