Good Morning, God,
Lord, whether we like it or not, or admit it or not, the headlines since Friday have bothered us. Some of our feelings are fear; some feelings are anger; some are frustrations; and, some are even hate. Lord, we even don't know what we are supposed to feel after something as horrific as the shootings in the theatre in Colorado takes place. We just know we are supposed to feel something.
So, Lord, even though you are busy comforting, strengthening, and giving wisdom to the people of Aurora, please give us the wisdom and strength and comfort to handle our feelings here. We don't want to fear going to our theatres. We don't want to imagine everyone we meet as a possible murderer. We want to feel safe in our homes, on our streets , around our businesses and even at our entertainment.
Lord, let us hear your words, "In life and in death you belong to me. You are my child, and I am always with you.
Thank you, Lord. We hear and pray this in Jesus' strong name, Amen.
