Day Fifteen: For Candidates to Conduct Campaigns with Truthfulness and Candor

They sent their disciples to him along with the Herodians. "Teacher," they said, "we know you are a man of integrity and that you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. You aren't swayed by men, because you pay no attention to who they are.
--Matthew 22:16

Lord God, Your glory and majesty are known to us through Your kindness.  In Your goodness, You chose to reveal Yourself to us.  You know all hearts and You discern our motives in ways we cannot discern.  You are wise and good and truthful in all things.

Today I ask that You bring truthfulness and candor to the campaigns and elections.  Let those running each campaign, regardless of the office, choose truth and clarity over deception and guile.   Let the truth about any candidate for office, from the local level to the White House, be brought forward so we can honor You with our loyalties and our votes.  Amen.
