A Prayer for the Headlines, Wednesday, December 15, 2010

Good Morning, God,
This evening we will be able to take in a "new birth" in Huntingburg. We will have the opportunity to see the baby named "Stork Place." The Stork Place will be a new home for some of our senior citizens. the Stork Place will honor the legacy of Dr. Harvey Stork who originally began a hospital on the same corner in the 1930's. Now, rather than a hospital for everyone, it will be a"hotel for seniors."

Lord, we give thanks for the vision of Tri-Cap, the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority, and the people of Huntingburg. May this new facility bring peace, comfort, love and joy to our seniors!

Heavenly father, with this additional place for our senior residents to live, may all oaf us remember your ?fifth Commandment to "Honor your father and your mother," essentially meaning that we should hold in high regard and esteem anyone older than ourselves, particularly those who are especially vulnerable due to their age, health, and physical and mental capabilities. Lord, use us where you might to serve and honor our senior citizens.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
