A Prayer for the Control of Cancer
Lord, cancer is a mystery and a darkness we do not understand.
Help us to face that mystery and darkness with courage and strength.
Uphold us as we walk into that mystery and darkness with your loving arms.
Break the darkness with your light.
Light the way with comfort for those who have suffered loss.
Light the way with strength and closeness for families as they cope.
Light the way with wisdom and discernment for those who administer care.
Light the way with knowledge for those searching for cures.
Light the way with compassion and tenderness for all those touched by this illness.
Help us not to let the uncertainty of the future rob us of the joy of the present moment.
Teach us to live each moment to the fullest.
Mystery can lead to wonder, and wonder into joy.
Lead us into joy.
