Prayer For Stroke Recovery

Have mercy, O loving God,
upon all who have suffered a stroke.
Remove the sudden fear that befalls them.
Endow them with courage in the struggle
to recover what has been lost.
Grant them strength and hope
to envision new days ahead
and a spirit of faith
to take the risk of living fully
once again.
Amen.


Father in Heaven, you are the giver of life and the great physician.

You know our needs and wants. Please heal my earthly father. We know that his brain has been damaged by stroke, we know that without your hand on him that he will never be the same. At the same time we also know that you can make him whole again, you can repair damaged brain tissue, you can enable him to continue to serve you on this Earth.

Lord, hear my petition. Be with my mother and all of my family as we experience this storm in our lives. I don't always understand your plan for us, but I do trust that you work all things for the good. I only ask that it be your will to bring Dad back to us. But if it is not so, please bring us peace and acceptance of your will.

I ask these things in the name of your Son and my Savior, Jesus Christ. All glory and honor belongs to you.
Amen.
