I like to use The 23rd Psalm to pray for others.
This may be a family member, a friend, a stranger or a person with whom I've had a disagreement.
The Lord is Steve's shepherd, Steve shall not want.
The
Lord allows Steve to lie down in green pastures,
The Lord leads Steve where the waters are still.
The
Lord will restore Steve's soul.
The Lord will lead Steve in paths of righteous so that the Lord
will be glorified.
The Lord will lead Steve through dark valleys
and Steve will not fear.
Because the Lord will be with Steve and
the Lord's rod and staff gives Steve comfort.
The Lord will
prepare Steve a table in the presence of those who trouble him.
The Lord will
anoint Steve so that his cup will over flow.
Surely
goodness and mercy will follow Steve all the days of Steve's life.
Steve will dwell
in the Lord's house forever.
Amen
