Restore to me the joy of your salvation. Uphold me with a willing spirit.

Psalm 51:12 World English Bible

Reflection

Demanding decisions and persistent pressure can easily drain those who serve in government. When uncertainty clouds the path ahead, heavy burdens replace enthusiasm for governance. True refreshment does not come from political success or favourable circumstances, but from resting in God's steady presence. We ask the Lord to grant leaders deep inner gladness, quiet assurance, and spiritual strength that endures through every trial.

Prayer

Pray for joy to be renewed in God’s presence, even in challenging or uncertain moments.
