Heavenly Father, Creator God:

Centuries ago, You gave us Your law. You gave us Your commands so that human beings could learn to live in peace, in harmony, and experience prosperity. You gave us the Law out of the goodness of Your heart so that community could actually exist.

We come before you this day, as elected officials, as elected leaders in many different capacities. The people of our communities have lifted up and called each of these individuals by name, to serve them and the places they live. Their people have called them to create laws that should ultimately provide further prosperity, peace, and harmony in the lives of so many families in this great state of South Dakota. But we also know that there are challenges that lie ahead - challenges in politics - challenges in economy - challenges in agriculture - challenges in healthcare, amongst others, across this state. As human beings, we struggle to lead amongst tension so we pray for peace. We struggle to lead when where

is division so we pray for unity. We struggle to lead when there is darkness in our hearts and minds so we pray that your light would shine into the corners of all of us, and help us to show compassion, when the rest of the world would prefer bitterness. "A light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it" (John 1:5).

In Christ's name, we pray. Amen.
