Dear Spirit of Compassion and Truth, you reside in every courtroom and every wilderness. In the broken horn and the broken heart, in the cries for justice and the longing for peace, we lift our voices to you today. We carry the weight of sorrow, the ache of injustice, and the hope that still dares to rise.
We pray for those whose legal defenses are slipping away as law firms retreat under pressure and fear. May the vulnerable not be left voiceless, and may justice never be a privilege reserved for the powerful. Let courage rise in the hearts of those who defend the defenseless, and may truth find its way through every locked door.
We hold in prayer the investigators and the accused as the Office of Special Counsel opens a Hatch Act probe into Jack Smith. May integrity guide every inquiry, and may the pursuit of accountability be rooted in fairness, not vengeance.
We mourn the lives lost in Montana, where a gunman shattered peace in a bar and left four souls behind. We name the grief that lingers in Anaconda and pray for safety, healing, and the swift end to fear. Let communities be restored, and may violence never be mistaken for strength.
We lift up Gaza, where rare aerial images reveal the scale of displacement and destruction. May aid reach the hungry, may shelter find the displaced, and may peace be more than a distant dream.
We give thanks for the boldness of science, as rhino horns are made radioactive to deter poachers. May this innovation protect the innocent, and may creation be honored, not exploited. Let every creature be safe beneath your sky.
For all beings—the grieving and the rejoicing, the powerful and the powerless, the seen and the unseen—may peace prevail. May love lead. May hope endure. Amen 
Whispers of Grace
