Thank you, alpha! Thank you, Knitting!
Morning Election Prayer Ping!
With what shall I come before the LORD,
and bow myself before God on high?
Shall I come before him with burnt offerings,
with calves a year old?
Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams,
with ten thousands of rivers of oil?
Shall I give my first-born for my transgression,
the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
He has showed you, O man, what is good;
and what does the LORD require of you
but to do justice,
and to love kindness,
and to walk humbly with your God
Micah 6: 6-8
O Lord, we come before you at a time when our enemies rail,
when gleefully they plan how to destroy the things we have been taught by you to call good, and to enforce those things which you have named wrong as right. Be with us this election day, and may those who go to cast their ballots cast them as you would have us live, and not how the enemy would destroy us.
Teach us your ways, and help us do justice and love mercy, and walk humbly with you all the days of our lives.
In the name of Jesus, Amen.
