· I thank You for the ability, honor and privilege to
stand, before You, in this chamber to offer a prayer, a word of encouragement
for us, Your people.
· Lord, You know all about the
challenges that lie before us. The difficult choices we must make at times; and
· I beseech You to help us find common ground in our
collective duty and desire to serve the great people of the state of Michigan.
· Lord, I pray that we be endowed with Your wisdom and
discernment, that it would lead us to make the best decisions regarding Your
people.
· Lord help us to serve through the lens of the Fruit of
the Spirit: ‘Love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness, and self-control. Against such there is no law.’
· Lord, may Your love, grace, and perfect will abound
this day and forevermore, because indeed, Love is the Work!
· This I pray in Jesus’ name, but please pray as you
believe … Amen.”
