Prayer for America 09/24/05

God, our freedoms are much like the air we breathe; they are taken for granted until they are taken away. So today I pause to thank you for the freedoms our citizens have been able to enjoy: being able to freely worship, choosing what we will wear, voting for whomever we wish, deciding whether and whom we will marry, and having the freedom to travel from place to place.

This is just the beginning of a very long list. God, you are the author of freedom, the champion of the privilege to make one's own choices. Help us honor you today by choosing well and wisely.
