Thanksgiving for healing begun

Bright Lord of morning, we thank you for the tears that wash away misunderstanding and silence. We thank you for anger that breaks through into the open and brings with it hurts where they may be tended and cared for. We thank you for forgiveness and second chances, Gracious One. You kindle communication where there is silence, you kindle understanding where there is confusion. You bring about reconciliation and the beginning of healing. Let the healing once begun never waver. Let those brought together by your healing Spirit continue forward in your presence, a love and support for one another on their journey. In the name of the One God, Creator, Redeemer, and Sanctifier. Amen.
