Faith Leaders Share Words of Hope, Challenge and Intercession on National Day of Prayer

Virginia Allen-Commentary : May 4, 2023  The Daily Signal

"...Though cultural challenges abound in America, we believe greater things are in store for our future. You have made us salt and light when the world is without taste and dark. As one nation under God, bless our efforts to be indivisible. Our hope is in YOU..." -excerpt of prayer by Dr. Kelvin J. Cochran, senior fellow and vice president at Alliance Defending Freedom

Buoy us with confidence in Your eternal nature, which stabilizes the undulating arch of all human history. It was Your wisdom, manifested through our Founding Fathers, that built hardy frameworks for these United States of America to withstand calamities for generations. We resolve to continue echoing the refrain "In God We Trust."

Lord, impart courage and tenacity when our hearts feel faint as we gaze across the gulf of social and cultural divides. Keep us "One Nation Under God"...
