A Prayer to the God who is Enthroned Over the Flood
So I pray, and I cry out for God to do what He does, bringing salvation from sludge and mercy from mire.
Instead of a brown river of mud and destruction, I pray for a crystal-clear flow of life-giving water. Let the imagery flip, Lord, and pour out torrents of your Spirit on this city. Rush into homes and hearts and hospitals, carrying away the filth of sin with the waters of forgiveness. Flood this city with the knowledge of You, God, as the waters cover the sea.
