Dear God,
Please calm and comfort all of Ukraine’s children affected by russia’s war on Ukraine. Help their parents to protect their families. We pray to you today, to be with the children, understand their pain, protect them so they will not be hurt. Help them find sleep through the dark night hours. May they know you are there. Help them find a safe place where they are not afraid.
Lord, please protect the vulnerable children of Ukraine, protect their families, and restore them to their homes and cities so that they do not feel abandoned and forgotten. Instill the belief that they will be safely returned to their families, home, and country.
Amen!
