I'll trade you a prayer. You pray for me to overcome my depression and early morning awakenings, and I'll pray your friend is found safe and well. (I'll pray for that anyway. I've added some bedtime prayers to my ritual, since I've read a number of scientific studies that say praying for others gets them better at an alarmingly high rate. (It's really breakthrough, but weird, information. I'd read it in "Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom" long ago, and it seems to be out again.
Really, you don't have to pray for you, but I will add your friend to my prayers.
