Our thought for today is from Psalm 33:22: "Let your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in you."
Let us pray. Almighty God, build in these Representatives and staff, confidence in Your steadfast love that You care for them and will direct their thoughts, words and deeds. May we put our trust in Your guidance to give wisdom and integrity. Provide Your blessings on our Nation, President, State and leaders. Give protection and safety to our defenders of freedom. In Your Holy name. Amen.
