Heavenly father, thank you for all the good you are doing through us to save so many souls. We are all suffering from the battering of the last year, but some of us have suffered far longer and far worse things, and you have still saved them. Forgive us for not seeing that which has been hidden from our sight, and may the world know of such darkness and its ending.
