DAY 22: Our Judges and the Judicial System

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. – James 1:5-6

The work of our judicial system is among the most difficult in our society. Our judges and jurors are called upon to protect the rights and liberties of their fellow citizens while enforcing law and providing justice to victims. In exercising these duties, each must seek to find the wisdom that comes from God.

Heavenly Father, we thy children approach thee in humble prayer for the judges and juries in our communities. Bless them with the wisdom through the Spirit of Christ to know good from evil. Give unto them the ability to be merciful unto their brethren, to deal justly, to judge righteously, and to do good continually. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
