Presidential Prayer, October 24

Lord:
You command us to pray for our daily bread, the things we need for daily living. Through Jesus, You also demonstrate that You are a God of grace.

And so, as we near the end of this bruising presidential campaign, we ask that You would give our country not the President we deserve, but the one we need. And the president the world needs from America, too.

Grant that our next President, whether it's Senator Kerry or President Bush, will be an instrument in Your hands. Grant that through that President, You will help make ours "a more perfect union."

In the Name of Jesus our Savior, we pray.

AMEN
