Prayers
For
People
There are so many people that deserve prayer – friends, workers, heroines, heroes and more. In a world where human negativity is too often highlighted, it is great to know that most people are not only good, but deserve thanks for being who they are, and what they do.
Friendship Prayer
May we bask
In the radiant warmth
Of friendship
May we bounce
On lightweight laughter
And be gripped
By unexpected stories
Sometimes silly
Sometimes soppy
Sometimes serious
Make us playful
Polite, generous
Happy, sad, sorrowful
May friendship empower us
To share the life journey
With joy
May we share the mystery
Of loving kindness
That lies at the heart
Of true friendship
Illuminate us
With loving loyalty
Judgement free
So we don’t fail
And we don’t fall
For friendship is sacred
Love, respect and acceptance
Are woven together
And we feel held
Please join me
In giving thanks for friendship
And its endless gifts
On the journey of life
