I ask You to share with them Your wisdom and Your guidance as they debate important issues and establish policy for the citizens of this great state of Michigan. I pray for guidance and wisdom for all of our leaders in our local communities, our counties, our state, across this great nation, and around the world.
Lord, we pray for our families and for good health. Watch over them and keep them safe wherever they may be. I pray, Lord, for shelter for the homeless, food for the hungry, resources for the less fortunate, and education for our children. Let us do all we can for those less fortunate among us.
Holy God, help us to make this day a productive day, and we hope that all we accomplish today be pleasing in Your sight and glorifying to You.
