Prayer for America 09/13/05

You are everywhere, Lord, comforting and guiding us as we move through life's extremes. You are with us during births and deaths, in routine and surprise, in peace and conflict, and in stillness and activity. We cannot wander so far in any direction that you are not already there with us.

Each prayer is a message of faith in God. We are saying, "I trust you; lead me. I believe in you; guide me. I need you; show me." When we offer ourselves openly, he will always answer.
