Lord God, You placed us in this family as a gift to one another. Watch over our home. Bless each person who belongs to it. Where there is misunderstanding, grant patience. Where there is hurt, bring healing. Where there is distance, restore closeness.
Help us to love one another as You have loved us — not perfectly, but faithfully, and always willing to begin again. May our home be a place of peace, prayer, and welcome. Amen.
