A Prayer for America

5 years ago, I wrote a prayer for America. My heart was torn and I felt so desperate for my country as I wrote the prayer. The feeling hasn’t changed because we still need God’s love to reign in our country. Some would say now more than ever. In thinking over the personal freedoms I have and preparing to celebrate Independence Day, I wanted to share a prayer for America once more. Join me in prayer?

A Prayer for America

Our Father,

We, the people, in the
land of the free and
the home of the brave,
desperately need You.
Oh, that we would leave our ways
of seeking to be blessed
and instead seek to bless others.
We beg for Your guidance and wisdom
for our leaders.
We ask you to protect our land
from enemies, both within and without.
And we praise You for the freedom
we have through the blood of Your Son.
May Your plan be the desire of our nation.
Amen

 

By his grace,

Rachel
