815.0. "Please pray for Canada!" by POLAR::DOWNEY () Mon Oct 30 1995 09:55

I know there is a topic for prayer, however, I am hoping for an immediate
response. Perhaps I should have entered this sooner. I only thought of it 
this morning. I think this is a better place for my request. 


Please pray for my country Canada. This day Quebec votes for a mandate
to stay or separate from confederation. Quebec has been part of Canada
for 128 years.

Regardless of the outcome please pray for healing. Whatever the results,
there's going to be a lot of hurt people.

I pray Father at this time for my country Canada, let there be unity 
from sea to shining sea. May your love prevail in our hearts through
your Son Jesus. Let every head bow and every knee bend to you Jesus,
our Lord and Saviour.

815.1ICTHUS::YUILLEHe must increase - I must decreaseMon Oct 30 1995 10:1112
	"Everyone must subbmit himself tothe governing authorities, for 
	 there is no authority except which God has established...."
								Romans 13:1

Father, as this great nation of Canada votes today over this division in 
spirit, we ask that You would overrule in all decisions; that You would be 
peace in people's hearts and minds as they go to the polls.  That the 
result might be from You a balm to those of both persuasions.   Minister to 
those who are discontented, that they may find their peace in You, and in 
You alone.

							In Jesus' name

    Thanks for the written and unwritten prayers. I also thank God for this 
    Digital and this Notes file.
    
    The vote was a nail bitter(sp?). 50.4% NO and 49.6% Yes. 
    
    Over 90% turnout at the poles. The difference was approx. 50,000
    votes out of 4,000,000.
    
    Please continue to pray for our leaders. And for reconcilation.
