God bless our country. God bless the whole world. No matter who wins this election we still have a long road of healing ahead of us. May God, Love, help us all – each and every Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Green Party, Black, Brown, White, polka dotted, atheist, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish, gun-toting, unarmed, flag-waving, anthem-kneeling, F and M and LGBTQ one of us.
Amen.

I love this little prayer. May the day come when we can recognize the Love within and without and stop fighting over labels.
Marva Weigelt’s acoustic cover of “Mother’s Evening Prayer / O Gentle Presence” comes to mind.
Guaranteed to buckle a strong-man’s knees, as it smudges the ink of an open hymnal, when his rain of tears falls upon the earth. Someday, some day, Love and not labels will reign in the house.
Love rules! ❤
