Prayer for today (12/11/15)

Oh God, Father, we thank you during the hard times and also the good times. Send your blessings and success to all leaders here and elsewhere in the world. Bless our children to obey you and also obey in school. We give thanks for all the blessings you bestow upon us. Please bless the world for this holiday season. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.

-- Elder Carrie B. Jones
