Heavenly Father, You gift us each day with Faith Hope Love and Life, given to us unconditionally. Have mercy on your people who consider the Law of the Land above your law. Grant to us your people a conformance of our law to your law so that we may bring ourselves to live in your heavenly kingdom, as we profess daily when we prayer "Your Kingdom Come...".
