We pray for an end to the culture of hate which has infiltrated our society; an awakening to the evil perpetuated by those who stir up dissent, cause strife, and target those on the front lines. We pray that these individuals come to a realization of their actions and behavior which puts lives at risk, and serves only to tear down one another.
We ask that God touch hearts, bring clarity and healing to our communities, especially to our leaders who have the power to advocate for responsibility over blame, right over lawlessness, and accountability over apathy. We pray their eyes may be opened to the need for change in our communities and neighborhoods, and that instead of promoting anger and resentment, they instead stand up for what is needed rather than what is popular.
May each of our law enforcement officers find healing from traumatic situations, injuries, and the constant stress they face daily. We pray that wellness, communication and outreach efforts continue to be launched which supports them in every element of their work, so no one feels they are struggling alone. May each and every one of our heroes on the front lines be safe today and in the days to come.
Amen.
