A Prayer for the Headlines for Wednesday, May 1st

Good Morning, God,

The headlines today are found in the sports report, God. One of your biggest fans and followers, Tim Teboe is being talked about. It seems that he was a great quarterback in college and an even greater man of faith. He was drafted to play in the NFL, but hasn't been able to play NFL caliber ball. He does, however, still give you praise, glory, and witness, God.

Lord God, so many times we have been good at something, but later on we aren't. Our talent that once flowed now ebbs. Our energy that once was tireless is now tired out. Our minds that once were considered brilliant are now seeming to atrophy. The gifts and skills we once were given seemed to be taken back… And we wonder, "what's next?"

God, you know the plans you have for each of us, plans to prosper and not to harm. So, for our part, may we hold fast to our faith and your guidance, as we experience each new day in, perhaps, new ways.

In Jesus's name, Amen.
