Inflation, jobs, housing, and basic necessities are on the minds of all Americans this election season.
The American Dream is a concept rooted in the idea that anyone can achieve prosperity through hard work and determination. But this can feel like an elusive goal for many U.S. citizens. Escalating costs of living, driven by inflation, have significantly hampered individuals’ and families’ financial stability. As inflation drives up the prices of essential items such as food, gas, and housing, a larger percentage of paychecks is consumed by these basic necessities, leaving little room for savings and investments..
The financial stability of the American middle class remains a pressing concern.
HOW THEN SHOULD WE PRAY:
- Pray for our leaders and policymakers to have wisdom and compassion as they make decisions that will impact the economy and our daily lives.
- Pray for our communities to be able to come together in support of one another.
- Pray for us to hold on to hope and trust in the Lord and to have our hearts and minds strengthened in Him.
