God will make our way straight

If we are humble,
If we submit to Him,
If we turn our lives,
Over to God…
 
God will be gracious,
God will be merciful,
God will make our way straight,
All of our life…

In my weakness, in my doubting

I pray for Your Wisdom,
For your provision,
For Your guidance,
I pray to You, Lord,
In my prison, in Sheol.
 
In my weakness, in my doubting,
When I am double minded,
I pray for Your clarity,
To know where to turn,
To know what to do.
 
I pray to You, Lord,
In prayers unceasing,
Lifting my petitions,
My praise for Your bounty,
How You have provided for me, Lord.

A prayer for Wisdom – v2

Lord, I come to You,
On my knees, broken,
Unsure of anything,
Of any good in my life.
 
Lord, I come to You,
In the storm, at a crossroads,
Unsure of everything,
What I should do with my life.
 
Lord, I come to You,
Seeking Your guidance,
Needing Your provision,
Wisdom from You.
 
Lord, I come to You,
Humbly, begging, crying out,
Show me what to do,
Today, right now.

A Prayer for Governing

Dear Lord

I pray for our country, as we awake in the new light, the new day, after the close election. I join Governor Romney and President Obama in the call to common sacrifice, to a rejecting of ideology, and to the calling of our nation together. As I prayed yesterday, I pray again today, We are not red or blue; We are a purple country, drenched in so many blessings, a royal priesthood if we would just accept the love of God and turn from the self-centeredness of the world.

I pray for our country, that we will find kind words and expressions of common purpose now that the elections are over. We are strongest when we come together. And we face challenges as a nation. Together these can become opportunities for growth and positive change locally, nationally, and around this troubled world.

Please guide the hearts of our nation and our leaders. May we see the results of the election as a mandate to responsibility, as a calling to action, to fix the deficit and the debt; but also to care for one another, to reach across the divides of party, of class, of race, of gender, of all of the compartmentalization we find ourselves in.

May we come together as one nation for the common purpose of governing and walk as a people, the melting pot that is America, the quilt, the salad, yes; but one nation under God.

Amen

A Prayer for Election Day 2012

Dear Lord

I pray for our country this election day, that God would help us discern the right candidates to lead our nation and our states.

We are not red or blue; We are a purple country, drenched in so many blessings, a royal priesthood if we would just accept the love of God and turn from the self-centeredness of the world.

I pray for our country, that we would find a kind word and an expression of common purpose once the elections are over. We are strongest when we come together. And we face challenges as a nation. Together they can become opportunities for growth and positive change locally, nationally, and around the world.

Please vote. Too many of our heroes have fought, been injured, and died for our right to vote. We must never forget, never be complacent, the sacrifice they have made that we might be free. Please vote, it is the very least we can do for the sacrifice they all have made. Freedom isn't free.

Amen
