A Prayer for the Headlines for Wednesday, September 25th

Good Morning, God,

Lord Jesus, we are so grateful when we feel safe, at least feeling safe most of the time. We say "thank you" when we go to see a movie and return home safely. We say "thank you" when our children return home from school safely. We say "thank you" when our sons and daughters and spouses have an uneventful day while on military duty. We say "thank you" when we have enjoyed a day of shopping with friends and made it home for supper. We say "thank you" when we weren't involved in that car accident along the way. We say "thank you" when our homes indeed remain our castles, and we find ourselves safe in them each and every day.

We say "thank you, loving God, for your protection, each day. Thank you for the peace it brings to our lives. And, thank you, that at our end, we may dwell securely with you, eternally, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
