Prayer for World Refugee Day

Adonai,
Lord and Master,

Many are the journeys your people have taken:
Abraham’s journey led from fear to understanding;
Moses’ journey led from bondage to liberty;
the disciples’ journey led from death to new life.

Even today, your people journey— 
immigrants and refugees,
pilgrims and nomads,
searching for hope,
searching for opportunity,
searching for peace,
searching for you.

Lord, I know that I too am called to journey.
Yet too many times,
I have heard your call,
and my feet have remained unmoved.

Continue to call me
beyond my comfort and into encounter.
And when I meet a companion on the road,
may we find you in each other’s embrace.
Let us share the journey.

Amen
