John 11: 1-16
Father I am not sure why you allow suffering and pain yet I know that through it your glory and compassion are shown and your grace and love are demonstrated. Lord God I pray for those I konw expereincing pain at the moment, especially Ruth, Tom and Rachael. Lord God I ask that you would be close to them and that they and I may be reassured by your care and that your word shows that you honour suffering and pain.
