A Prayer for the Headlines for Wednesday, November 2nd

Good Morning, God,
Lord, we want to give thanks today for those in our towns who do their jobs well for us.
We are grateful for our bankers who still cheerfully and appropriately handle our business over the phone or in person. we are appreciative of our retail merchants to whom we can still say, "I've left my checkbook at home. Can I pay you tomorrow?" And they say, "Sure, no problem!"
We enjoy the friendliness of our hometown businesses when they show it in their voices, calling us by name.
We love it when we are still waited on personally and escorted to the product we are looking for.
We feel safe in our towns knowing that the officers who are on patrol know what's going on and keep a lid on most of the harmful stuff, while patrolling for those who are impaired while driving.
Lord, may we show our appreciation by being good citizens, shopping at home and saying, "thank you!"
In Jesus' name, Amen.
