Loving and Gracious God, I ask you this day to give wisdom, discernment, compassion and grace to those who hold power in this state. As scripture tells us, “Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts.”
Let us know that our cries have reached your ears by helping those in power to craft a compromise. Loving God end our suffering this day.
In Your holy name we pray,
Amen
==Let’s keep the separation of church and state intact.==
I wasn’t aware Rich’s blog was “the state.” Sheesh.

If there WASN’T such a being, you wouldn’t nor anyone else wouldn’t be here. If you don’t like the prayer, skip over it.

“Loving and Gracious God…”
If there were such a being, we wouldn’t be in this situation. Let’s keep the separation of church and state intact.

… and yet, session begins daily with a prayer.
(Sigh)
