Prayer For The Church (Free verse) by sliver

Guide us, St. Joseph Through this time of transition. Help your princes in their efforts To fill this lofty position. Help them to elect a leader With a strong hand, Someone with the wisdom And the strength to take a stand.

Oh God, this conversation's going downhill fast.

So why bother asking God to "help them elect a leader", etc? Why not just ask for His will to be done, even if it means not finding a leader at all, or finding one who's a total clod?

Do you hope the new pope will have a stronger hand and take more stands than JohnPaul2 did, or do you just generally hope he'll have strong hands and take stands? If your answer is the first one, what do you hope he'll have stronger hands and better stands than JP2 about?

I'm genuinely curious.
