Prayer of the Day: Cancer | Sojourners

Prayer of the Day: Cancer

On World Cancer Day, we remember all those who have passed away as a result of this devastating illness, all those who have lost loved ones, and especially, all those who are even now struggling with cancer. You are a Healer, God, and so we pray for your restoration and wholeness to come. But where it does not, we trust that you are still, and will always be, faithful in your presence and in your grace. Grant your peace, Lord, particularly to those who, being poor, have not the resources to aid them. Have mercy upon them, God; have mercy on us all. Amen.
