Good morning, God,
The headlines speak of another scam being attempted among our residents. It happens when someone calls with what we thought was personal, private, privileged information. Because the caller has such information, we believe the call was legitimate, and we will send the money or give out more personal information, such as our Social Security number, driver's license number, and/or our bank account numbers. We may even be asked for our "pin" number and passwords. The next thing we know, our checks are bouncing because our bank accounts had been drained.
Lord God, why did you have to make people who turn out to be scammers?
Lord, scammers give those who truly need help a bad name and a tough time. Worse than this, scammers prey upon the least and the lonely, those whom you say we are supposed to care for.
So, Lord, we pray for a change of heart among those who would use another person's innocence for their own personal gain. Lord, come against and into any who would scam this day.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
