Good Morning, God,
There is a lot of talk these past couple of days about what our President's strategy is for our engagement with the battle for Libya. Seemingly, it is to join with allies with the authorization of the U.N. Security Council to establish a no-fly zone over Libya so government forces can't bomb their own citizens who are being rebel forces. But we are concerned, Lord, that now that we have gotten involved, it will be difficult to disengage, even to the point of us "putting boots on the ground." What is our strategy? Do we have one?
All of us have or should have strategies for our own life, shouldn't we Lord? We have to want and plan to do more than just "eat, sleep, and be merry." We have within us the desire to be productive, and we need to have and take the opportunities to do so. We have within us the capacity to love deeply, and we need to take the opportunities to experience the giving and receiving of a long-lasting and abiding loving relationship. We have within us the capacity to give, to give without expecting anything in return. May we be willing to give of ourselves sacrificially, not counting the cost, even until we have given our all.
Let the desires of being productive, loving deeply and giving generously be our strategy for life.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
