title a prayer for the headlines for Monday, February 25

Good Morning, God,
Kind and gentle God, may this week be kinder and gentler for us.
The headlines recently have been about an adult on an airplane slapping a two-year old and using a racial slur because the baby was crying during a landing descent. The headlines have been about a man who was charged with animal cruelty for repeatedly kicking a stray cat. The headlines have been about a child molester who was beaten while in prison and about a child who was molested by his father. The headlines have been about a person suing a Sheriff's Department because he felt that an off-duty officer had used excessive force while arresting him unjustly. Then, also, is the wrangling about the federal money problem coming to a head on Friday.
Lord, we pray that as much as anything we are involved with pertains to us, that we will try to be at peace with all who are involved. And, where we aren't directly involved, that we will pray for those who are!
Let there be peace for us this week.
In Jesus' name, Amen .
