"He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."

~ Micah 6:8 (NIV)

Today’s Reflection

Today’s Prayer

Righteous God, we seek Your guidance in understanding how proposed laws and propositions will be implemented in our communities.

Your word declares in Micah 6:8, “He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” We pray for laws that are applied fairly and equally to all, reflecting Your divine principles. Help us recognize and address any potential disparities or unintended consequences that may arise during the implementation process. May our choices reflect Your justice and mercy, ensuring that all members of our society are treated with dignity and respect, regardless of their background. We ask for wisdom and insight as we navigate these complex issues, so that our actions embody Your love and fairness in every decision made.

In Your name, Lord Jesus, who will one day be the Judge over all humankind. Amen.
