Prayer for the Week

  

A Prayer for Our Nation

May we as nation be guided by the Divine to rediscover the sacred flame of our

national heritage, which so many have given their lives to safeguard;

Let the wounds of separation and division be healed by opening our hearts to

listen to the truth on all sides, allowing us to find a higher truth that

includes us all;

May we learn to honor and enjoy our diversity and differences as a people,

even as we more deeply touch our fundamental unity;

May we, as a people, undergo a transformation that will draw forth individuals

to lead our nation who embody courage, compassion and a higher vision;

May our leaders inspire us, and we so inspire each other, that a new spirit of

forgiveness, caring and honesty be born in our nation;

May we, as a united people, move with clear, directed purpose to take our

place within the community of nations to help build a better future for all

humankind;

May we as a nation rededicate ourselves to truly living as one nation, under

God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all;

And may God's Will be done for our nation, as we, the people, align with
