Prayer starter
But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed. - 2 Peter 3:8-10
God, thank you for being patient with the people of Kyoto, Japan. We bless you for your desire that not one of them would perish but that all would be reconciled with you! We ask, Lord, that you would quicken their hearts, minds and spirits to you and that they would be saved from your day of wrath, O God!
