Almighty God, your Holy Spirit moved over the waters in the beginning of creation, and your Son Jesus walked on the Sea of Galilee:  Be mightily present with all those impacted by catastrophic flooding in the Hill Country.  Be close to the lost that they may be found;  Guide and protect those who search;  Strengthen those who await news of loved ones;  Comfort those who mourn;   Provide for those who have lost homes and livelihoods.  And in the midst of things we cannot understand, empower us to entrust all to your never-failing love, and give us the will to persevere in our response to their needs.  All this we ask through your Son, our Savior, Jesus Christ.  Amen.
