Good Morning, God
Lord, there are times in our lives when we must lie to benefit the common good. The headlines have been about the thwarting of another plot to blow up another U.S. airliner or an airliner headed to the U.S. Turns out, Lord, that the one carrying the bomb was an American CIA mole who had infiltrated the al Qaeda cell enough that he was going to be the suicide bomber. Instead, he lied, and brought the bomb to the authorities in the U.S. We are so grateful for his loyalties, Lord, and we are thankful for his safety.
Now, Lord, we pray for the skills to dissect the bomb and determine how it was made and how another one can be detected if it is being carried onto public transportation, especially airplanes. Much beyond that, Lord, we pray for a peaceful end to the ugly and deadly animosity that plagues our nation and the world. May there be peace on earth!
In Jesus' name, Amen
