Prayer for America 03/10/06

Father, thank you for the people who make up this great big nation under you. Thank you for the school children struggling to learn math, for the grocery store clerks stocking the shelves, for the nursing home workers comforting the elderly, for the accountants working to balance the books, for the runners trying to master their bodies.

Thank you for the businesspeople who pay their employees a living wage, for the scientists who keep looking for the next breakthrough, and for the film directors striving to tell powerful stories with powerful images. Thank you for all the people working every day to do their part to make America great.
