A peaceful moment for us today

A Prayer for Democracy
“When the foundations are being destroyed, what can the righteous do?" (Psalm 11:3)

Lord please give us the wisdom to see the damage being done to our democracy by those who would mislead, deflect, disrupt for the sake of disruption and power, and deny the humanity of others.
Give us the courage to learn, witness, to speak up and out, to protect the right of all to vote and be heard.
Help us to connect to our fellow citizens and commit to their well-being.
Help us renew and nurture our country’s ideal of liberty and justice for all.
Help us Lord to resist tyranny in all of its forms.
Amen.
