Prayer For Financial Healing

From the deep reaches of my heart and soul,
To the highest love in heaven,
I pray for a healing of my financial situation.

I reach a hand to the abundance of the universe,
And pray that I learn to transform my fear into possibility.
Let me open to all the good that exists in this world.

I lift my head up to the sun
And pray that I am inspired to turn darkness into light.
Let me raise myself up beyond my problems.

I look toward the future and what-could-be
And pray that I can believe in myself and my abilities.
Let me know in my heart that I have great strength.

I honor the place of fear that has gripped me,
But I pray that I do not let it own me.
Let me do what I can to bring peace to my financial situation,
And trust that this too will pass.

Blessing to Crisis-Proof Your Relationship

May this relationship be blessed.
In times of financial strife,
it is easy to blame your partner
for what is wrong in your life.
Always look deeper for the truth.

May this relationship survive tests.
When things go wrong, It is a chance to show
That you can weather even the harshest storms--together.
Always see your love as bigger than your problems.

May this relationship bring you strength.
When money is tight, you may feel weakened.
Instead, come closer together to solve your problems.
Always focus on the creating the life you want to share.

May this relationship be your safe harbor
There are plenty of things in the world to pull you apart.
Stay strong, two against the world.
Lean into each other and hold on.
Let your relationship be your foundation and your support.

Amen.

Prosperity Prayer for All People

Dear God, please bring prosperity to all people

and bring healing to those who have been hurt by the economic crisis.

We ask that these basic needs be filled for all people:

Money to pay our bills,

Income to meet our mortgages (rent),

Enough cash to provide proper nutrition and healthy food,

And more than enough for health care and wellness.

Please help us to provide for our families.

Beyond the material needs, please uplift our souls.

Inspire our creativity and resourcefulness.

Guide us in improving our lives.

Help us restore balance to our economy.

Point us toward a brighter tomorrow.

Please help us to hold on to faith.

And let us find peace. Amen.

--Rev. Laurie Sue Brockway
