A Prayer for Teens and Social Distancing
Father,
We lift up teens during this COVID-19 Crisis. Many have been called away from their schools, social lives, and normal activates. That can be shifting to say the least, but we lift them up during this time. We pray for those who feel lonely to feel Your companionship and presence with them. We pray for them to come closer to You, to take this time distanced from the world to ponder the universe outside of their usual lives, and in the course of it to unlock more truth found in You. As they miss the social aspects of life, we pray they can connect with those they care for in new and creative ways. From snail mail to video chats we pray there will still be ability for them to connect with others. We pray they respect and understand the need for social distancing, and that they would become compassionate and have tender hearts towards those who are sick or vulnerable of catching the virus. May this be a time of great growth in their lives.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
