A Prayer for the Headlines for Wednesday, June 6th

Good Morning, God,
Lord, someone said that those who forget history are destined to repeat it. Sometimes, we need to be reminded by the headlines of something that has happened so that we can get it in our minds so we won't miss it next time and "repeat history."
Such were the headlines about the" Relay for Life Walk for the Cure" this past weekend. Some of us, perhaps many of us, weren't aware that this was happening. Perhaps we went by the Middle School, saw the lights on all night, and wondered what was going on.
What was happening was that victims, survivors, and supporters were walking the laps to raise money for cancer research. (We could still give our monetary support, if we were so led to do so.)
However, Lord, we  can also "Pray for the Cure." So, we pray in concert this morning for you to heal those who have cancer, prevent cancer from returning to those in remission, stop cancer from infecting anyone else, and stop cancer, PERIOD!
Thank you Lord, for doing all of this.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
