Prayer in Winter Hardship

Loving Father, on this day, many will struggle in the harshness of winter.

Please guide the homeless to shelter, and give comfort to the homebound.

In places where winter has delivered yet another onslaught, please give courage to the discouraged and spiritual comfort to the disheartened.

Where there is hardship because of ice, snow, and coldness, please give hope.

Lord God, although we are fragile in our humanity, help us to remain strong in faith.

Amen.
