Father God, we pray for our leaders, for those in positions of power. We pray that they lead with godly wisdom. May those who don't know You be surrounded by men and women of faith who can guide and advise them. May they be saved, Father, and come to full knowledge of the truth. Open our hearts to revere our elders, even though that doesn't seem to be the custom in this current age and culture. It was never Your plan that people rely on the government to care for them in their later years, but that family would take care of their own, and where family wasn't available, the church would care for them. Bring us back to Your values and away from the selfish values of the world. May love be what drives us, and not a desire for wordly riches. May we learn to be content. Certainly, we came into the world with nothing, and will leave with nothing save the treasures that we have stored up in heaven. We set our hope on You and You alone, we follow after righteousness and we fight the good fight of faith. The fight that Jesus has already won. Amen
