Dear God of justice and wonder, You who dwell in the depths of the ocean and the heart of every courtroom, We come before You with reverence, Carrying the headlines of a restless world, And seeking Your wisdom to guide our steps, our leaders, and our communities.
We lift up the unfolding events in the Caribbean, Where a U.S. military strike on a suspected drug vessel near Venezuela has escalated tensions. O God, may justice not be confused with vengeance, And may every life—no matter its path—be held in Your mercy. Let peace be pursued not through force, But through courage, compassion, and diplomacy.
We pray for the city of Los Angeles, Where a judge has ruled the deployment of military troops illegal. May this decision be a reminder that power must be tempered by law, And that the streets of our cities are meant for peace, not intimidation. Let leaders be held accountable, And may communities be protected by justice, not fear.
We reflect on the relocation of U.S. Space Command from Colorado to Alabama, A move that stirs both celebration and concern. May this transition be guided by wisdom, not politics, And may those affected—military families, workers, and communities—be supported with care. Let our defense be rooted not only in strength, But in integrity and shared purpose.
We hold in prayer the ruling that Google must share its search data with competitors, A step toward restoring balance in a digital world. May transparency and fairness guide our technologies, And may innovation serve the common good. Let privacy be protected, And may competition be a catalyst for truth, not exploitation.
We marvel at the discoveries emerging from Earth’s hidden corners, As scientists uncover extraordinary creatures long thought lost or unknown. Thank You for the mystery woven into creation, For the resilience of life in the deepest seas and darkest forests. May these revelations awaken awe, And remind us that wonder is never far from reach.
And in all these things— In every courtroom and coastline, In every lab and legislature, In every act of courage and every cry for help— We ask:
May peace prevail. May love be our compass, May truth be our foundation, And may grace be the rhythm by which we live.
Amen
