Special Corona Prayer

By Rabbi Allouche

Before prayer, recite Psalm 30.

Master of the universe, may you be overcome with mercy upon us and all the world’s inhabitants, and protect us from all harm, and rescue us from every sickness, disease, plague, and pandemic.

May all patients infected with the coronavirus be completely cured. May it be Your Will O Compassionate G-d, Healer of all to abolish all harsh and evil decrees. and may You help us and redeem us for the sake of Your Kindness.

May the following words of the Psalmist be fulfilled in us: "You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy."

O G-d, Hear now please the voice of our plea, for You hear the prayers of all; Blessed is He Who hears prayer. Amen.

One-liner Meditations

"The past is gone, the future is yet to come, and the present goes by like the blink of one's eye. So, why worry?" - Avraham Ibn Ezra

"Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way" - Viktor Frankl

"Imagine you could open your eyes to see only the good in every person, the positive in every circumstance, and the opportunity in every challenge."

- The Lubavitcher Rebbe

"We devote so much time to the "before" and "after" [stages of life] that we no longer have time to experience the thing itself. When we are in the "before" stage, we think about what will be; in the "after" stage, we think about how things were. Either way, there is nothing to make us hold on to the present… But the focal point of our thinking is not life for the sake of tomorrow but rather life today. What matters now is what is now." - Rabbi Adin Even-Israel Steinsaltz

"If you wait until you find the meaning of life, will there be enough life left to live meaningfully?"

- The Lubavitcher Rebbe

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."

- Proverbs 3:5-6

"Indeed, as the clay in the hand of the potter, who, when he wishes expands it and when he wishes contracts it; so are we in Your hand, O You who remembers us and our deeds of loving-kindness."
