Prayer for Japan and those in the path of the tsunami

Heavenly Father, we struggle to understand such things as earthquakes and tsunamis that can wreak such havoc and destruction, causing deaths and heartache for so many people. Yet we also acknowledge that You are in control and You see what we cannot. So we lift up in prayer those who have been negatively impacted by both the earthquake and the tsunami. For those who have lost loved ones, please bless them with Your peace and comfort. For those who have mobilized to provide help, bless them with whatever they need to be able to provide that help. For those still in the path of the tsunami, please bless them with the wisdom to not put themselves nor anyone else in danger. Help us all, dearest God, that we will seek out what You would have each of us do in response to this disaster. All these things we ask in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
