Dear Divine Spirit of Compassion and Justice, we address You today, burdened by sorrow, uncertainty, and the yearning for peace that transcends all divisions.
We pray for the thousands of federal workers who dine at their tables tonight with layoff notices beside unpaid bills. For those who served with unwavering dedication and now face the unknown with trembling hands, may they be met with dignity, support, and the assurance that their labor was not in vain. Let justice guide policy, and compassion direct every decision.
We lift up the people of Texas, where millions reside on flood plains, akin to Camp Mystic. We remember the children, families, and communities that dwell near rivers that can both nurture and destroy. May wisdom emerge from the aftermath of disaster, and may leaders heed the pleas of those who have long sought protection.
We express gratitude for the quiet affirmation of justice as the Supreme Court declines to permit Florida to enforce its immigration crackdown. May this serve as a reminder that no one is deemed illegal in Your eyes, and that mercy must always coexist with law. We pray for the strangers at the gate, that they may be welcomed with grace, not fear.
We hold in prayer the people of Brazil, as steep tariffs are announced in protest of political trials. May diplomacy be guided not by vengeance, but by understanding and truth. Let nations communicate not with threats, but with humility, and may the dignity of every people be respected.
For all beings—the grieving and the rejoicing, the powerful and the powerless, the seen and the unseen—may peace prevail, love lead, and hope endure. Amen 
Whispers of Grace
