Matt Blunt - Missouri

[Originally planned for April 16]

From the website linked below:

"Governor Blunt was born November 20, 1970 in Springfield, Missouri. He attended public schools in Strafford, and graduated from Jefferson City High School prior to entering the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland.

Prior to his election as governor, Matt Blunt served as an active duty Naval Officer, as a member of the Missouri General Assembly (District 139) and as Missouri’s 37th Secretary of State."

I was impressed by this biographical sketch and emailed the following prayer:

A Prayer for Gov. Blunt

Heavenly Father, we pray for Governor Blunt. We thank you raising him up to service to the country in the military.

And now, as he serves as governor of Missouri, we pray that the same values that he showed in that service will be evident daily in his service to his state.

Bless his efforts for the continued prosperity of Missouri through both education and economic development.

Bless his marriage, keep it strong.

In Jesus' name,
Amen
