God, I lift up every person and family impacted by this shutdown -1 pray for mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, brothers, and sisters-cover them, strengthen them, and meet every need in this difficult time. Bring peace where there is worry, and security where there is fear. Lord, help us as a community to come together, to support and care for one another as Your Word calls us to do. Even in this season, I believe You are making a way and bringing breakthroughs. In Jesus' mighty name, Amen.
