Glorious Lord, creator of all the universes, I lift to you this day the state of Nebraska and all of the people who call this state home. Bless the people and the land with the full measure of your grace and mercy. Protect the people from themselves as they strive to live their lives day by day, my Lord. Protect and surround with your loving arms the alcoholics, the drug addict, the prostitutes, the homeless, and the unlovable, for you have said in you word that you are not willing that any man should perish.
Lord, I give you thanks this day, in the precious name of Jesus, Amen.
