Good Morning, God
God, what if we would take all of our thoughts today and decide to make them positive, helpful, peaceful, even loving, headlines?
What if we took that headlines that are made in Iraq and Iran and Afghanistan and Pakistan and said that the militants and the common people are now at peace? What if these nations put away their swords and offered peace to the United States and other nations of the world?
What if the United States could offer our way of life to the world lovingly, rather than defensively or apologetically? What if we would help the people of much poorer countries with their basic needs, without a quid pro quo and with the assurance that the aid would get to the people?
What if we could have the headlines for tonight that everyone is paying a fair share of the taxes, that everyone who can has a good job, that every widow, widower and orphan has the care they need and that every government official is serving in a manner that brings glory to you?
What if we all took the responsibility for these headlines to happen? Oh, what a glorious day and start to the week this would be! May it be so.
In Jesus’ name, Amen
