a prayer for hospice patients

A friend is receiving hospice care and is traveling the last days of her life. Would you please join me in prayer for her and all those who are climbing these final steps?

God, thank you for being with us right now.

We confess that we don’t understand why things happen the way they do.

We don’t understand why illness comes into our lives, but we do know that you walk every path of life with us.

Remind folks that are in the end stages of life that you are walking with them right now.

Remind them that you love him, no matter what they are going through.

I also pray for their family.

Give them your strength as they care for their loved one.

God, we thank you that you never leave us, that you never forsake us, but you love us.

We trust you, and pray this in your name.

Amen.
