[Secretary FUMC Mertzon (mertzonfumc]

  A Prayer For Rain (Please pray at 3pm everyday)

 This prayer was written in the 1950s during an awful drought in Texas. The prayer was written by Father W. Schneider of St. Mary’s in Fredericksburg who also ministered at St. Frances Church in Stonewall. It has gone all over the world. 

Almighty God, we are in need of rain. We realize now, looking up into the clear, blue sky above, what a marvel even the least drop of rain really is. To think that so much water can fall out of the sky, which now is empty and clear! We place our trust in You.

 We are sure that You know our needs, but You want us to ask You anyway, to show You that we know we are dependent on You. Look on our dry hills and fields, dear God, and bless them with the living blessing of soft rain.

 Then the land will rejoice and the rivers will sing Your praises and the hearts of men will be glad. Amen.

Gary Karschner asked me to share the information below and attached:

 

Last week the Miles Ministerial Alliance met and voted to ask churches in Miles to provide their members with the attached prayer for rain. They would like everyone to pray this prayer, or one of their choice, at 3:00 P.M. everyday. If the time is not convenient, anytime is great. They just want prayers going up! 

 

Thank you!

 

God bless,
