Prayer for America 07/12/06

Father God, in you we trust our lives and freedom. Let me linger for a moment and, with your guiding hand, see a sacrifice I can make to extend our nation’s bounty to other lands. Your love for humankind is a gift so grand I sometimes fail to understand that to completely unwrap this gift I must share it, in your name, beyond my country’s borders with suffering people whose names I will never know. Amen.


Love is an active force. When we “walk and talk” and live God’s message of love, we create an America full of faith. When we do that, we are God’s voice, his hands, his light for each other. We are living love.
