When you said, “Seek my face,” my heart said to you, “I will seek your face, Yahweh.”
Psalm 27:8 World English Bible
Reflection
True guidance for any society begins when individuals and decision-makers pause to acknowledge God's presence. When those in authority seek the Lord's favour and align their motives with divine grace, quiet humility replaces self-reliance. Asking that leaders turn their attention toward God creates space for integrity, patience, and genuine care to shape governance. Honest engagement with the Divine fosters a posture of reverence and wisdom across every community.
Prayer
Pray that as He turns his face toward us that we will also turn to meet his gaze.
