Lord today we pray for Jill. We thank you for her desire to serve the people of her Toronto Riding as an MPP. We pray for her and her role as Women’s Issues Critic, Culture and Heritage. We pray that you would help her to have great wisdom and insight into these important issues and provide good ideas to the government that the people of Ontario will be blessed. Help her to have good work/life balance that she may be an effective MPP but not at a sacrifice to her family. We ask this all in Jesus’ name. Amen.
