Father, you are indeed our everything. With you, no weapons formed against us shall prosper. With you, sadness is alleviated as your Holy Spirit consoles us. With you, we all have hope and not despair.

Father, help all to call on your Holy name during both their good and bad experiences. Help all to understand that you will always be present to carry them through their trials and tribulations. Therefore, keep their faith even when it seems like their prayers are not being answered.
