Tell others and bring hurting people to him

Keep it private and wait for a better time

Ask someone else to care for the needy while you stay back

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit that I have sinned and cannot make myself clean. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I turn from my sin and trust you as my Lord and Savior. Come into my life and heal what is broken in me. Amen.

Come to Jesus for Mercy

Lord, awaken your Church so we recognize Jesus rightly, speak of him freely, and bring hurting people to him with compassion. Where we have been slow, private, or numb, renew us with holy love, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Make Your Church Quick to Recognize You

Father, we lift up the sick and the weary. As people once brought their hurting neighbors to Jesus, let your mercy meet every person we name now with comfort, strength, and healing, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Bring the Sick to Jesus

Pray for open eyes to notice when Jesus is near, courage to tell others what you have found in him, and doors to bring people who need him to the place of help.

News Worth Sharing

Pray by naming one person who is hurting, asking God to give you a responsive heart, and asking for one concrete way to help carry that need toward Jesus.

Pray with a Tender Heart

Give thanks that Jesus does not turn away the sick or the overlooked, and that ordinary people can help others reach him. Thank God for mercy that welcomes real need and makes room for care.

Thankful That Jesus Welcomes the Hurting
