A Prayer for the Headlines for Friday, November 4th

Good Morning, God
On Wednesday we prayed and gave thanks for our towns and the sort of living we have in them.  Today we pray for the way our living has to fit into the rest of our country and the rest of the world.  We didn't pray for any of the challenges our towns face, Lord, but we have our problems just as other places in the world do.
So, today, we pray for the world economic situation, with the country of Greece at the forefront, and the stock markets being affected and affecting our lives here
We pray today for the frustrations being played out in the "Occupy" movement.  May those who are "Occupying" our public squares also "Occupy" their spaces in the voting booths and exercise their rights to vote as well as their right to assemble peacefully.
Lord, we pray today for our situations of living, in general, that they all may be for benefit and not for harm.
In Jesus name, Amen.
