Good Morning, God
Its Monday and the budget goes on and on and on! The discussion about our nation's budget is serously in the headlines these days, as is the debt ceiling that Congress imposes on ourselves to limit the amount of money we can borrow. It is said that we must raise the celing by the middle of next month or we can't pay our nation's bills. So, Congress, with our President's bidding and blessing, will more than likely approve the new numbers.
What isn't making the headlines, Lord, is the interest we are having to pay on the borrowed money, a lot of which is going out of our country to other countries. This is no different than our personal finances - if we have extra money, we will invest it to earn interest while the money itself is being loaned out.
The problem is, though, the interst payment on our U.S. debt is about to knuckle us under. Lord, please give us wisdon and restraint on our spending, debt and interest.
In Jesus name, Amen
