Prayers for you in Texas and Mississippi who still believe in science and will continue practices that will preserve your health and the health of others. Woe to your leaders who do not understand what it means to preserve even one life.
Prayers for those who still see the United States as a haven who would, if given a chance, become dedicated, freedom-loving citizens, who would not take anyone’s jobs but would, instead, strengthen our communities. Woe to those who only see immigrants as unwanted outsiders and invaders, whose prejudice resembles policies now being practiced by China and Myanmar.
Prayers for those who continue to believe in democracy and freedom in that context, and for those who have fought, and will always fight, for votings rights for everyone. Woe to those who would limit voting at every turn because they believe voting would reduce the power of their party, rather than trying to win support through persuasion, whose would portray a smooth election as fraud-filled because of obeisance to a cult-like leader.
Prayers for our well-being, and may our spirits be lifted so that we do not sink into despair, and may we hold up honesty, empathy, and integrity as desirable human traits that belong at the foundation of our character.
