Lord,
Forgive us for yielding to the two demons of the flesh (gluttony and sex).
We as a nation have allowed ourselves to be consumed by the flesh. Our judgment for falling into our vices is to take away our freedoms that were a gift from you and subject us to the collective rule of government—a socialistic system that others are imposing upon us.
Let us arise once more—realizing that our freedom comes from you—that you are the ultimate “freedom” and with that “freedom” comes responsibility toward others.
You want us to focus on those who have no “freedom” because of their sin and to those whose “freedom” has been unjustly taken away. Bring back compassion and caring to us as a people. Let us see the wickedness of our ways.
Have mercy on us. Forgive us, for the sake of the babies and the elderly. Have mercy and compassion on them.
