Dear God,

We acknowledge that punishing the righteous and flogging officials for their integrity is not good. We pray that you guide our leaders to make just and fair decisions, and to treat all individuals with respect and dignity. Help us to live in a world where righteousness is rewarded and integrity is valued. May your love and grace shine upon us always.

Amen.
