Prayer for Joseph

Father, Holy One, Creator of our Soul,

Hear my prayer,

Thank You for the rain that falls on the just and the unjust

Thank You for the sun that shines on the righteous and the sinful

Thank You for the heart that beats in the searcher and the lost

Thank You for the breath that both exalts You and condemns You

Let praise ascend to the highest mount and pierce the lowest vale

May the Way, the Truth and the Life pour forth in everlasting torrent

You alone, You on high, You our strength, You our banner, You our King

You our hope, You our desire, You, Oh precious One

As water flows, let your Son wash our sins away

As vapor grows, let you Spirit permeate our beings

As Ice, let us walk upon Your solid truth

As all three are one, let us revel in the miracle of Your personalities

To work within our minds, our souls

The perfection of Your desire for our salvation

Our eternal life, and as created beings

We belong to You

Through Christ, we can be as You

Amen and Amen

Father, I lift up Joseph, Bernice, their loved ones and their hopes

I pray that you would rescue Joseph from the pit, remove him from the prison
and establish him as Prime Minister as You have planned.

I pray that You will bring his efforts to pass,
for the glory of You alone and Your Kingdom

I ask it, I claim it as faith that is the hope of things wished for
and the evidence of things not seen

Baruch Atta Adonai,

Atta Kadosh

Amen

Micha-el
