10 Tammuz 5777

Dear Heavenly Father,

Praised are you my Lord and may your holy name be praised in the heavens above and on the earth below for ever and ever.

Thank you for bringing me to this day, for waking me and breathing life into my soul.  Thank you for blessing me with one more day to spend with those I love and one more chance to be your light in this world.  Father, please grant me the strength and the wisdom to walk in your word and to show your love.  Please fill my heart with mercy so that I may be forgiving to others just as you have been forgiving with me.  Father, please guide my steps and protect me from evil.  Please, never remove your face from before me and may my action bring glory and honor to your name.

Father, I thank you for blessing this nation where I have grown up in peace and comfort.  Thank you for allowing this nation to grow and to be established under your blessings.  But Father, as with other nations, we have had too many years of wickedness, leaders who have led us down a path of false gods and rebellion against you.  We have failed to teach our children your truth, your wisdom and now our schools and our society teach against the word that you have blessed us with.  You my Lord, in your wisdom and mercy, have now blessed us with a chance of repentance, have given us a chance to turn from our sins and return to you.  You have given us hope in this new leadership, and Satan has been throwing a temper-tantrum ever since.  Those who follow evil are trying at every turn to discredit and bring down the leader whom you have provided.  But we who know you, know that through your grace and mercy, we are being freed from the downfall of society, the same downfall all civilizations succumb to when they wish to become gods themselves, rather than ruling in Your glorious and holy name.  Please bless this country with peace, with love, with unity, with strength, with security, with wisdom, with mercy, with liberty, and with freedom.

Blessed are you O Lord our God the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob who blesses us with freedom.

Amen!
