A Prayer for the Headlines for Monday, January 3

Good Morning, God,
As we begin work on this first day of the first week of 2011, we pray for the men and women who boss, supervise and guide us. We are grateful for their faith in us to get the job done well. We pray thanksgiving for our customers who use our services and buy our products. We pray we that we may satisfy their needs throughout this year.
As we begin this first day of the first week of 2011, we pray for a new prosperity - First, a prosperity of kindness between every person, then a prosperity of love in each family, then a prosperity of caring for each person who is lost, lonely, or ill. We pray for a prosperity of joy in each of our lives that gladdens our heart and soothes our mind.
We pray for a prosperity of love, Lord, a prosperity that sees us through hate to forgiveness, through sin to goodness, and through death to life and love everlasting.
Lord, may your prosperity that exceeds even the value of precious jewels and all things natural, fill our lives this good new year, a year in which you can make all things new.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
