My Prayer for Peaceful Protesting

Right now, I feel so blessed to be a citizen in a country where the people have a say in politics, that there is a good sense of checks and balances so that corruption doesn't destroy the country, and that the people feel safe.

The current state in Honduras is not like that. As developing country I can see the people's desire for change.  They want their voice to be heard.  They want the government not to be corrupt.  They want to feel safe and protected in their own country.  As I write this there is a peaceful protest happening outside my window.  They are marching, like they have the past few Sunday nights and as they will continue to do so until they see a change.

My prayer for Honduras is this: That the people may see the change that is necessary for Honduras to become a better, more stable country.  That they will remain peaceful in their pursuit of justice.  That they will see that even in countries like the USA, people protest, disagree, and feel abandoned by the government.  And most of all, I pray that they see the God is with them, protecting them, and loving them even more than they can see in the midst of their struggles.
