A Prayer for Japan
Jesus,
These are a people you first starting choosing 400 years ago - with the arrival of the Portuguese Christian messengers. No, way before that! These are a people selected by you at the start of time - some were always chosen for your kingdom.
Jesus, these are a people who love nature. They value community too; both blessed by you. Give them the power and insight that comes through these things; bless them with the Spirit that loves these things too.
Bless them with Jesus' blood - a red trickle down a white snowy mountain. The breathe of the wind through the countryside. The fragrance of the cherry blossoms. The baptism of the cold sea waves. The cleansing onsen. The new leaf of the chrysanthemum.
Bless these people.
In Jesus name,
Amen.
