I'm not much for praying in public, but Dear God, we need it now more than ever.
Please pray that strength and wisdom be granted to President Bush and our representatives in congress so that they can get back on the path of defending our nation, securing our borders and preserving our God-given rights and freedoms.
Please pray for our troops and that they return safely and victoriously over the forces of evil.
Amen!
Amen.
Amen.
Hard job...
Prayers lifted.

Jim, apparently, Bush talks to God so he’s already got a front pew seat.
I now make it my earnest prayer that God would have you, and the State over which you preside, in his holy protection; that he would incline the hearts of the citizens to cultivate a spirit of subordination and obedience to government, to entertain a brotherly affection and love for one another, for their fellow-citizens of the United States at large, and particularly for brethren who have served in the field; and finally that he would most graciously be pleased to dispose us all to do justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that charity, humility, and pacific temper of mind, which were the characteristics of the Divine Author of our blessed religion, and without an humble imitation of whose example in these things, we can never hope to be a happy nation.
-- George Washington, June 14, 1783
Prayers on the way! ...for the President George W. Bush, for our beloved country - the U.S.A. - and for ALL of us! May the good Lord save and preserve us ALL. May He give us strength and wisdom to live by His guidance and may He protect us from all harm...May God bless us ALL.
Amen!
Thanks, Jim.
Amen
Amen.
Amen and Amen. Lord, hear our prayers.
Amen
Thank you, sir! Prayers lifted up for our country and our troops. I’ve been more worried about this in recent days than ever before. God bless our troops and their families, God bless America!
These have always been included in my morning and evening prayers since 2000, and especially since 2001 and all that’s happened since. Thanks for starting this thread, may thousands of prayers be said.
