Reading

Now the day before Saul arrived, the Lord had revealed this to Samuel: “About this time tomorrow I will send you a man from the land of Benjamin. Anoint him ruler over my people; he will deliver them from the hands of their enemies. I have looked on my people and heard their cries.”

—1 Samuel 9

Quiet

As your day draws to a close, spend a few moments in silence and stillness.

Prayer

Governing God, you have ordained prime ministers and presidents, premiers and governors, mayors and civic officials to support a flourishing social life. Today I pray for these leaders, that you would lead them to rule wisely and well, for the good of all people. Amen. (BC)
