27^th November 2006

Dear Lord,

In the past few weeks, the weather has changed abnormally. Last week, it rained so heavily that the Observatory issued an amber rainstorm warning signal. That was the first time ever to issue a rainstorm warning in November. Under normal circumstances, there should be no heavy rain in autumn. Also, the average temperature in October was the highest recorded in over 23 years. Due to the greenhouse effect, global temperatures have been steadily increasing for decades. God, we pray for our world. Please awaken more and more people to protect our planet, which is the place you specially created for us to live.

We are having our first term exam this Thursday. God, we thank you for the knowledge and the learning experiences we have acquired in this term . Please illuminate our minds and hearts. Let your Holy Spirit be with us as we prepare for our exams, guiding our studies and giving us insight so that we can perform to the best of our ability.

Lord, hear our prayer!
