Election Day Prayer

It's 5pm on Election Day... here's my prayer:

May everyone who wants to vote be able to. Bless the folks who have to endure hardships but still do it.

May the best of the spirit of America be revealed in the ways that folks help each other out today. Bless the election judges and election volunteers.

May everyone involved with voting approach the system with integrity. May the result reflect the truth. Bless those who respect the opposition enough to help them vote too.

May the result come by midnight. May the result be uncontested. Bless the folks who do all the work of tabulating so we don't have to wait too long.

May the best man win. (Since it has to be a man this year...) That's Obama. Bless him for stepping up to lead us at this time.

Amen!
