Honourable Irfan Sabir - MLA for Calgary-McCall

Heavenly Father, we thank you for the Hon.

Father, we pray for clear vision for him as to how to accomplish his goals for those who genuinely need his help. Give him discernment and wisdom as he deals with those who find themselves in unfortunate circumstances, often beyond their own control. We pray your wisdom will guide him and enable him to accomplish more than he dared hope as he deals with those who are hurting.   In Jesus name,  Amen.
