Before we begin our prayer, I would like to share a brief reflection on Psalm 121. This psalm is a song of trust in God, recognizing that He is our true source of help and protection. The psalmist begins by asking where his help will come from, and then affirms with conviction that help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. It is a powerful reminder that in all circumstances, we can trust God to keep and guide us. Let us join together in prayer, beginning with the Universal Prayer.
