I ask Thee to let my family, friends, and also myself have a peaceful day. I also pray that we stay healthy, safe, and strong throughout today. Forgive us, also, for our sins we have committed and will commit, for we are not perfect like You. Protect us, O Lord, with Thy great strength, and guide us down the right path. We praise Thee, bless Thee, and thank Thee, O Merciful Master! Amen.
