Prayer for America 09/22/05

Thank you, God, for the people you have chosen to be my family, my friends, and my fellow citizens. They are my guides, my teachers, my angels, and my cheerleaders. Though I may often be in conflict with them and we fight and argue and say things we regret, I am blessed to have these people walking beside me along life's path, helping me to grow and become whoyou created me to be. Amen.

We trust in the Lord to care for us, and he, in turn, trusts in us to care for each other. We can honor his faith in us by pledging to serve our communities. We can truly live his love by caring for our neighbors.
