Prayer for the Future

Dear Lord, please help our nation come together as one, and not keep fighting against one another. Help us to be kinder to each other, so that we can be one strong nation. Let us end racism and bullying and stereotypes in our country. Put your hand on our president and guide him/her to make smart choices. Allow us to help one another when we have fallen, instead of doing nothing. Help us to end violence and hatred.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
