Even though we move through the valley of the <br />shadow of death, we shall fear no evil, You are with us, You <br />protect and comfort us. <br />Thank You for the shepherds among us, especially for healthcare <br />workers, first responders, police and fire, whose care for others puts <br />them at risk. Grant them protection, wisdom, clarity and rest. <br />When our anxiety turns into fear of our neighbors, forgive us. When fear <br />constricts our hearts and compassion dries up, renew us. When <br />exhaustion and scarcity cloud our judgment, lead us. <br />Encourage us to protect those most vulnerable, especially those who are <br />sick, isolated, unemployed, or without shelter. <br />Shepherd this good council of leaders. Guide the members along right <br />pathways. Always alert to the reality of the threats facing us. Blessing <br />our cities leaders with calm assurance, courage and unity. Amen. <br />pastor todd gumbrecht <br />peninsula covenant church <br />
