A Prayer for Ohio’s New Governor

O Lord our Governor, whose glory is in all the world: We commend this state of Ohio to your merciful care, that, being guided by your Providence, we may dwell secure in your peace. Grant to our new Governor, John Kasich, wisdom and strength to know and to do your will. Fill him with the love of truth and righteousness, and make him ever mindful of his calling to serve this people in your fear; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.
