Prayer: 20 November, 2008

God of All That Is:
To you, we give thanks for Barack Obama. We give you thanks for the tomorrow that you have given us. God, you lifted up a simple, kind attorney and placed him in the highest civic office in this great country. Rather than judging wealth or fame, God, you judge the character of each of us. We give you thanks, again, for all that you continue to provide for us. We give you thanks for those passionate enough to be willing to die for this country. We give you thanks, God.

Today, we ask that you grant peace and serenity to the Obama and the Biden families. They are in for a world of changes in the next few months. We ask that you allow a safe and peaceful transfer of the White House from the Current Occupant to Barack and his family.

For the past eight years, America has been driven into a quagmire. But you, O God, have given us another chance. This chance is built upon the Gospel of Jesus Christ and embodied in Barack Obama. As Obama takes the office of President of the United States, I ask that you give him the grace and guidance necessary to fulfill the sacred office to which he was elected.

We give you thanks for the members of this blog group.Grant them peace and grace as they go about their daily lives trying to focus on you and bring your word and will into the public's eye.

We offer these prayers in the name of the +Creator, the Christ, and the Holy Spirit.

God is Love,

+Cody
