Prayer For The Three Filipinos Facing Execution in China
San Lorenzo Ruiz |
Into your hands we commend the fate of our fellow Filipinos, who are facing death sentences in China.
Redeem them, O Lord, and set them free.
You are our supreme master, our creator, and our sole reason to live.
Lord, you are the only one who can take our lives.
Let no person on this earth impose any kind of punishment that would exterminate a person’s breath;
That even death penalty, no matter how humane it can be in some countries, is a sin against your will.
Lord, in these last few minutes, we raise our prayers to you.
We also pray for the families of the convicted Filipinos, who are grieving at this point of time.
Comfort their hearts and keep them safe. Give them strength and don’t let their hope grow less.
And lastly, O Lord, we are asking for peace and love to reign in this world.
Instill in every person the right for life, the respect for life, and the love for life.
These we ask, in Jesus name,
Amen.
God, have mercy on their souls.
