A Prayer for the Headlines for Wednesday, August 1st

Good Morning, God,
God of good times and bad, we ask your blessing this week for the "good times." It's time for our Strassenfest weekend, our Street Festival time, and we want it to be safe and fun both.
We want to enjoy life together on the streets and sidewalks. We want to enjoy the concerts and food. We want to renew old friendships and wander around the square with those we love. We want to feel safe letting our kids go off by themselves. We want to make lots of money at our different stands.
Gee, Lord, we sure want a lot, don't we?
So, perhaps, if we will do our part; that is, behave ourselves, defer to each other, watch our alcohol intake, and even still attend the worship service of our choice over the weekend, then we will feel your blessing on these good times.
Lord, may we be wise in all things at Strassenfest.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
