A Prayer for Perspective & Trust
My Lord and God,
Remind me today, and everyday, that you alone are God who created this world and universe. Help me not forget that by your hand and your will I was created with love and for love. That even on election day, you reign. Remind me that I am human, that all candidates are human, and that whoever “wins” this election is not You. I am flawed, imperfect, and searching just as who or what I vote for.
