To Have Pride In Justice

 

Dear Lord please be with us this day and please may Your Holy Spirit be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and the blessings and the protection that You give us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.

Dear Lord please lead us into paths so that we may be champions for social justice as we mix and mingle with Your Children in Your Creation while seeking Your Kingdom and please show us progress as we follow Your Work so that we may be encouraged by the way that the pride is put to waste by Your Word, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
