Protect, O Lord our King, our families and the land of our birth.
Guard us we pray Most Faithful One.
Protect us from our enemies and from Your Just Judgment
Forgive us, O Sovereign King, our sins against you.

Reflection
Christ's kingdom is not of this world, but it is meant to be recognized and established on earth. When His reign is acknowledged, peace, justice, and love will flourish throughout the world.
As we reflect on this aspect of Christ's kingship and its meaning for our lives, let us ask ourselves how we can better acknowledge His authority and submit ourselves to His divine rule.
May Christ the King continue to reign in our hearts and help us to recognize His sovereignty over all creation, bringing peace, justice, and love to our world.
