November Prayers: Day 9

Photo of an yellow and pink dawn over a dark landscape, with pale yellow text over the dark: "A Prayer of Hope by Rev. Jan Avende. The sun still rises even on days that seem darkest. The gods of my heart, I call out to you today as I light my small flame of hope in this darkness: Give me the strength to hold myself together; Give me the space to grieve; Give me the courage to stand up for those in need; Give me the compassion to love those who challenge me; Give me the knowledge that the fight will continue; But most of all, give me hope. Give me hope that for all those feeling like me, that our brightness, our strength, our courage, and our compassion will be a beacon for others. That we may be the dawn that comes after the dark of night.

November Prayers: Day 8

A Prayer for Election Day: As we approach the polls on this election day prepared to vote and do our civic duty, Let us be guided by Liberty, her torch held high, that she may remind us of the values and freedoms she stands for. As we come together to make decisions for our nation, Let us honor the memory of our ancestors, and brighten the futures of our children. As we speak, let our voices carry respect; As we listen, let our ears hear honestly; As we think, let our mind seek what is best for the community. So be it!
