Let us pray for the vision impaired…who can only see differences in people, not who that person is inside…
Let us pray for the speech impaired…who can only speak with harsh and hurtful words, instead of kindness and understanding….
Let us pray for the emotionally disturbed…who can not seem to care for anyone that is any different from themselves, instead of at least trying to love everyone, “different” or not….
Let us pray for the hearing impaired…who can only hear the unspoken words, instead of listening for what someone is trying to tell them…
Please God…help these truly disabled people so that this world can become a better place for ALL of your children…….
AMEN!
