Praying for Global Peace and Relief

I’m filled with concern for our world lately. The war in Ukraine feels like a never-ending nightmare, and the images of families trying to flee their homes just break my heart. On top of that, the recent earthquakes in Turkey and Syria have devastated so many lives—over 40,000 lives lost and thousands without shelter. I have two friends who are deeply involved in providing aid, and I worry about their safety as well. Can we please pray for peace, for strong leaders who will advocate for justice and compassion? And for those who are suffering, that they find hope and support during these trying times. It's hard to manage within my own life while feeling so much for others, but I believe in the power of prayer.
