Good Morning, God,
The headlines have been about "Mainstreets U.S.A.," in particular, our Main Street, 4th Street, in Huntingburg. The story is about how the Chamber of Commerce is considering re-joining the national organization that encourages the presentation of an excellent "Main Street," especioally in smaller towns.
However, Lord, we all need to take pride in whichever street we are on in whichever town. We need to make sure only good things happen on our streets - neighborliness, cleanliness, safety, recreation and beauty.
Why, Lord, many of us don't even know the names of our neighbors who hve lived next door for many years!
Lord God, who created us to live in families, tribes, towns and cities and to share common interests and businesses and neighborliness, may we work to make our Main Streets the best they can be - and our neighborhoods the best places to be.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
