Mo. Rebecca’s Reflections

“I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be offered for everyone—for rulers and all those in authority— so that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity. This is good and pleasing in the sight of God our Savior.” 1 Timothy 2:1-3

"I never thought we could live without fearing the next day or every moment, but now that we have a calm and safe place to live and sleep, I can’t explain it but now I can finally breathe. Thank you."

M o . R e b e c c a : P r a y d u r i n g E l e c t i o n

Almighty God, to whom we must account for all our powers and privileges: Guide the people of the United States in the election of officials and representatives; that, by faithful administration and wise laws, the rights of all may be protected and our nation be enabled to fulfill your purposes; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Gracious God, thank you for your love as demonstrated on the cross of Jesus Christ. Allow us the strength to follow in his footsteps and love others the way you love us. Bless our nation with a sense of peace and unity of purpose that will lead us to do justice for all people. Grant us godly leaders at all levels of government and bless our public and civil servants with your wisdom and truth. May Your will be done in our nation and in the upcoming election we pray. Amen.
