Dear God of mercy and mystery, You who dwell in the silence between headlines and the heartbeat of every soul, We come before You with reverence, Carrying the weight of a world shaken by violence, transitions, and awe, And seeking Your guidance for ourselves, our leaders, and all creation.
We mourn the death of Charlie Kirk, And the outrage and firings that have followed, exposing deep divides across our nation. O God, be near to the grieving, the fearful, and the angry. May justice be pursued with integrity, And may our reactions be tempered by compassion. Let this moment not deepen our fractures, But call us to healing, humility, and truth.
We lift up the meeting between Senator Rubio and Prime Minister Netanyahu, As they discuss the Hamas war and operations in Gaza City. O God, may diplomacy rise above destruction, And may leaders seek peace not as a tactic, but as a sacred calling. Let the suffering in Gaza and Israel be met with mercy, And may the voices of the innocent guide the path forward.
We honor the long service of Representative Michael McCaul, As he prepares to retire from the U.S. House. O God, bless those who serve with integrity, And may transitions in leadership be moments of renewal. Let new voices rise with wisdom, And may public service remain rooted in care for the common good.
We cry out for those affected by toxic fumes leaking into airplanes, Sickening crews and passengers in ways unseen but deeply felt. O God, protect those who travel and those who serve. May safety be prioritized over profit, And may every breath be free from harm. Let truth be uncovered, And may healing come to those who suffer in silence.
We pause in wonder at the track world’s surprise, As Noah Lyles earns bronze in the men’s 100 at the World Championships. O God, bless the spirit of competition, Where victory is not only in medals, but in perseverance. May every athlete find dignity in the race, And may we all learn to run with grace, even when the outcome surprises us.
And in all these things— In every courtroom and stadium, In every meeting room and airplane cabin, 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 💕✌️🙏
