Vote

Prayer

Faithful Lord, today, we elect the next generation of our nation’s leaders. As we visit the polls and perhaps wait in long lines to cast our vote, open our eyes to the world around us and the struggles we face. Open our minds to your truth that it may guide us in the paths we should follow. And open our hearts to your love that the decisions we make today will not be for the benefit of party but for the good of all people and the earth we share. We pray through faith, in hope, and with love. Amen.

Loving Lord, the challenges we face often risk draining from us the joy of life. Touch our hearts that we might have the confidence to trust in the goodness of life. Fill our minds with your wisdom that the decisions we make can be shaped by your truth. May we always have the courage to choose joy in the midst of a difficult world. May the example of your unending love inspire us to face each day with a spirit of profound joy. In gratitude we pray to you. Amen.
