A Prayer for Peace during Election Season

Oh G-d, give us the strength and wisdom to make it through this campaign season. To help us breathe, to help us ponder, to help us stay true to our humanity. Help us differentiate between fact and fiction, truth and lies. Help us to remember that our power lies not only in the voting booth, but also in our capacity to make a difference in our communities every day. That for all the insanity to come in the next month, there will be a day after Election Day and we’re going to have to come together to bring peace and justice to our country and the world. Amen.
