A Prayer for Our Country

God, please bless the families of those we lost in this tragedy. Please bless these United States. May we never forget that freedom isn’t free, it is paid for in blood. Help us to honor their sacrifice and those of our soldiers.

Remind us of the people throughout our history who have laid down their lives to ensure freedom in this great land. Please remind us of this when we consider giving  up those hard earned freedoms, just to take the easy way out. May you remind us that these heroes throughout our history didn’t take the easy way out.

Please let us remember that throughout our history, these people died so we could have the freedom to take responsibility for our own lives. Help us to celebrate that freedom, and give us the strength to stand against those who would attempt to deprive us of that. Thank you for your strength and the blessings you have bestowed on this nation.

Amen
