Blessed are You Adonai Elohim, for You have given us a good earth and a wonderful life.

Creating and Loving Father, we thank You for the beauty and balance of our world. We give glory to You for the mystery and wonders of Your Creation.

May they not abuse or treat their workforce with injustice. We pray for all who seek to bring about fair trade. We pray for all who are unemployed or do not have enough resources for a healthy living. Father we thank You for our homes and our loved ones. Help us to respect all who work to supply us with our needs. We pray for all who work in the farming and retail industries. May we always be aware that all good comes from You. We ask Your blessing upon all who are homeless and all who feel they are not loved. Father we pray for all ill and suffering people. We pray for those who are struggling to survive and all who are oppressed by war, violence, crime and tyranny.

We pray this in the Name of Yeshua HaMashiach our Saviour and our King, amen.
