Heavenly Father, we lift up Bobby Morrissey, MP for the federal riding of Egmont. We pray that he would use his people skills and talents for the betterment of all people across this great nation of Canada. We ask that You continually enrich his abilities so that Canadians receive the help they need in the areas for which he has responsibility and influence. We pray that Bobby would be transparent in all his communications and that he would have discernment to recognize and respond wisely to the needs of those seeking assistance. May he remain friendly and helpful with all his colleagues in Parliament as they work toward the best possible environment and governance. Grant him great energy and wisdom as he carries out his duties. Lord, we also pray that You would draw Bobby’s family and those in his care closer to You each day, and that You would keep them healthy and strong. In Your precious name we pray, Amen.
