God , Companion of the Lonely

My morning prayer:

God, Companion of the Lonely
I pray for Ellen, my sister
I pray that she might know that you are her companion
That she might experience your love all around her
That she might find peace in you

God, Companion of the Lonely
You are my companion in my times of loneliness
The times when I feel the burden of the church, the family, my marriage
You are my companion
You are with me in my helplessness, my deadness, my waywardness, my pretense
You are my Companion. Always

Please guide me today to be a companion to the lonely that i encounter
May I recognize the loneliness in others and reach out to them.
I praise you.
Lord, I love you.
Amen
