Nothing can hold back
the brave woman from Canaah.

Not religious boundaries,
 not gender rules,
  nothing, 
when 
she 
told 
Jesus
 the needs  
 of her precious child.

Dear Lord,
 give us faith like this unswerving woman.
when we bring you our war, climate,
race and immigrant problems.
Make us stubborn. Bold.
Fearless. Creative.

 Whatever it  
 takes. 

Let us hear, “O, great is your faith.
Let it be done for you
as you wish.”

Infinite God,

you pour out your
 boundless
 mercy
 and
  love,
 
upon
all who
will receive it.

Fond Father,
thank you for your care.
Please help us and our world
  to receive it and then take it everywhere.
