Merciful Father of Us All,

We come before you in deep mourning for the loss the of the Americans who were serving the Holy Cause of Freedom in Fallujah. Not only do we mourn their loss, but we mourn the fact that their bodies were treated with contempt and scorn. Father, we do not understand the depths of darkness that would cause people, among them children, to desecrate the dead in this way with such abandoned glee.

Father, we know that there are those in that area of Iraq who are desparately holding on to the way of life they had under Saddam Hussein, and they powerfully resent the changes brought to them in recent days. We know too, that there are thousands if not millions of other Iraqis who are grateful for the liberation brought to them. Father, we ask that you will guide our President and our leaders as to the proper measured response this maltreatment of those who were bringing supplies to this area warrants. Let those who are tasked with whatever the reply shall be have your blessing, guidance, and protection. We ask that you will place your hands over any and all innocents during any retaliatory actions and that you will keep them safe by your power and mercy. Let only your Will be done.

Father, we ask that you will surround the families of those who have lost their loved ones in this savage incident, and heal the searing wounds they must be feeling in this hour. Heal the loved ones of those lost in Somalia from a similar incident who are possibly having their own wounds reopened. Father, we plead with you that such incidents may not be repeated. Guide our leaders as to the best of all possible actions which will bring to a close the temptation for the insurgents to indulge in this type of mayhem.

Let our nation be granted a constant Vision of what we are seeking to accomplish in defeating those who desparately desire to kill all of us, if they could. We know there are forces within our own institutions who do not share the Vision of the need to vanquish those who would destroy Freedom in this nation and on the planet. We ask that you will intervene in all media coverage of this savage action and not allow it to be used in any way to dissuade our people and leaders from your own Plan and Vision for what we must do in our War On Terror.

We completely surrender our nation and our leaders and our people into your keeping, for you are our own Father, and in you, our God, we trust. Despite the fact that there are also forces abroad which are presently seeking to take from us that motto in all our public places, we do affirm in this hour that "IN GOD WE TRUST!!" Not only do we trust you, Father, but we cling to you and know that you are the only answer and key to the salvation of all tests and problems and challenges facing us in this hour.

Father, if we have prayed amiss in any way, we ask that you will take the fervor of our prayers and align them into your own perfect Will. We ask that as we gather together in our worship places, in our own families, and as we pray individually, that you will take our prayers and multiply them so that the equation of the forces of your own Light and Goodness in our world may increase. All of this we ask to be done according to the power and love of the Ancient of Days of the Old Testament and/or according to the love and mercy borne by the Messiah portrayed in the New Testament. Let all who adore you, our Father, be united before you in prayer, and let our offerings be acceptable unto you.

Amen
