A Prayer for the Headlines for Friday, October 25th

Good Morning, God,

Lord, we give thanks for the positive news we can report, for the news of people in trouble doing something worthwhile.

Such is the case of some of the offenders at the county jail. Seems that part of their rehabilitation is including working on and in the garden plot, growing vegetables for the food bank and other places.

Lord God, when we can see the garden, when we can see the faces, when we can see the produce, and we can see the pride, then we know that the decent parts of human beings are coming out.

Creator God, inside every human being a battle is being fought, a battle between good and evil. When evil wins, people land in jail. When good triumphs, people grow gardens.

Thank you, Father, for the good in people. May good always shine on our faces.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
