Good Morning, God
Like a house of cards or a row of dominoes, the people keep falling who have been part of the "News of the World" organization based in England. People have been fired; people have quit; people have been found dead; the newspaper has closed. All because of an attitude of making headlines at any cost. Hang the ethics, right Lord, just get the references for the story and run it! Just because something is illegal to do, the ends justify the means, right?
"Wrong, my children" you say, Lord? You say that you will give us the gifts and skills necessary to make a living, support a business, get the headlines and get ahead - if only we will do things ethically and morally? You say to "let our "Yes" be yes and our "No" mean no. You say to treat others as we would like to be treated. You say to practice love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness and self-control. You say to give of ourselves sacrificially and we will be blessed. Help us to do so, Lord, for we desire to make our living your way.
In Jesus name, Amen
