A Prayer for the Headlines for Monday, November 7th

Good Morning, God
Lord, let your Holy Spirit begin flowing over us, especially, all believers, but also all citizens this day as we prepare to vote tomorrow.  Lord, believers know that those we elect and the issues we approve are of your doing; therefore, we should pray and seek your face when we are deciding for whom and what we are voting.  You will let us vote the way we want; may it be the way you want!  Lord, you have told us what to do and what our elections should reflect: "Only this, to do justice, love mercy and walk humbly" with you as our guide.  You also have promised that "If your people who are called by your name will humble ourselves, seek your face, and turn from our evil ways, then you will heal our land".
So, Lord, for our election day tomorrow, may we begin it with a prayer for discernment, guidance and gumption to elect those who will best guide in your way and vote for those things which will best enhance our life together in you.
In Jesus name, Amen
