Look again at verses 1 and 2, and 23 as you turn to prayer
Praying for people suffering injustice in our world
Praying for those working for truth and justice

Hear my prayer, O God!

Midday
Pray God’s blessing on the Bible Society in the South Pacific
O LORD God, have mercy on this work and hear our prayers this day we ask.

Evening
Reading : read these verses again from PSALM 55
Reflect on the words and images…. And then pray to the LORD our God

I go to you for protection, LORD;
rescue me from my enemies.
You are my God;
teach me to do your will.
Be good to me, and guide me on a safe path.
Rescue me, LORD, as you have promised;
in your goodness save me from my troubles!

Hear our evening prayers, O God, as this day ends.
We believe and trust in You and lay ourselves and this world before You.
In Jesus’ name, Amen
