Heavenly Father, You are the calm in the storm all around us. Remind us that while our nation's circumstances and our personal lives can face daunting challenges, You are the rock on which we can rest. Remind us daily that You walk alongside us and offer comfort and respite from the swirling uncertain circumstances around us. Help us, Lord, to not feel helpless and alone. You are a steady presence in our lives, and let us never forget that.
At the same time, prompt us to do our part in this tumultuous election season. You have placed us in a country whose past is rooted in religious freedom and freedom of speech. Guide us so that we do not take these precious gifts for granted. Illuminate ways for each of us to give voice to the gift of being able to worship You. Shine a light of opportunity in our personal lives, in our friendships, and in our faith lives to point out to others the tremendous stakes for the future of our children and grandchildren.
Lord, be with us. Amen.
