A Prayer for Three Candidates
Dear Lord,
Thank you for Barack, for Hillary, for John. Thank you for making them smart, for making them strong. Thank you for giving them passion and compassion; thank you for helping them to inspire.
As this thing really gets underway, help them to remember to keep putting us first. Even though this is a contest, please help them to continue to build up rather than tear down. Help them to remember that their duty is to us and not to themselves. Help them to listen to the conviction of their hearts and to turn aside from tactics and rhetoric. Whoever "wins", help them remember that they are all our leaders. Help them to keep that trust. Help them to guide us to a place of strength.
Help them to band together to reverse the course of the last eight years.
Amen.
P.S. - That universal healthcare thing? That sounds really, really good. Can we get that one done this time? Please, please, please? Cool, thanks!
