God of life, we give you thanks for Queensland,
for the land, its people, its achievements and plans. We pray for our State as we come to elect a new Parliament, holding up to you those who are candidates for office: may those elected set their hearts on serving the common good. We pray too for voters that they may choose what is best for all Queenslanders. God of compassion, who defend the weak and love the poor, may Christian communities be a voice for the voiceless through this election campaign. We remember our Indigenous peoples, refugees and asylum-seekers, survivors of sexual abuse, the victims of family violence, those in the womb and the elderly, those suffering mental illness, those weighed down by addiction and those trapped in new forms of slavery. We hold before you the entire world in this time of COVID-19, entrusting to you our sick, their carers and all afflicted by anxiety and isolation. Calm our fears and strengthen our hope as we look beyond the pandemic. Wise ruler of all, bless those who will serve in the new Parliament: may they reach beyond private interest, parliamentary tactics and party politics to bring peace, justice and prosperity for all. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. |
