A Prayer for Today

God of Love,

For teachers and students, firefighters and first responders, the confident and the confused, the under-appreciated and the overwhelmed, we pray. You are the Creator of every last one of us. You not only love us, you want to love us. It is our faith that your love lead us to a better day for your entire created order.

Amen.
