Praying in the flood

Lord,
the rain falls;
the waters rise;
the waves crash;
homes, cars, & trucks stuck on roadways
or worse washed away.

Help!
Lord, help.
Send your aide; send us.

Let us set aside
our preferences and prejudices
and provide aide to all.

Prove to us once again
the power of loving our neighbors.
And this time let us not stop.
Amen.
