Holy god, we love you. You are our strength, rock, and protection. Use our senators today to make our nation safer and better. May they often think of the positive legacy they can leave through faithful service to you and country. Lord, remind them that you have brought our nation through much greater difficulties than the ones we now face. As they strive to unite for the common good of this land we love, may they embrace your promise that you will never leave or forsake us. We pray in your merciful name. Amen.
