Good Morning, God,
Lord, the headlines have been about the trip that our President, his family, his staff and media are on. It is hoped, says our President, "to build bridges and make better allies between ourselves and the other countries". Our partnership with India has been encouraged and enhanced. The bridges to Indonesia are hoped to be extended and strengthened. Our relations with all of the countries in the area are hoped to be healthier.
Lord, your word is often about "loving our neighbors". In biblical times, our neighbors might be across a field or just in the next town or a person we meet along the road who is in need of help. But in our day, Lord, our neighbors are clear around the globe - shucks, Lord, we often talk to folks in India when we call "customer service".
Lord, please give us wisdom and discernment as we deal with other countries. May we wisely take into consideration the style of government, the influence of religion and the way the people are taken care of.
In Jesus name, Amen.
