A Prayer for the Headlines for Monday, November 3rd

Good Morning, God,

The headlines are about those who have suddenly lost their lives: A Transportation Safety Administration agent; and assistant football coach; a person caught up in a traffic accident; a person coming off the field of a football game who just crumpled and died.

None of these people had planned to die suddenly; perhaps none of these people had made any preparation as to what would happen if they died.

Yet, Lord, you tell us in your word to live our lives ready to die. You tell us that when we have accepted your love in your son Jesus that whether we live or die, we "are the Lords;" we are yours.

Lord of the living and the dead, may we this day have the sense of peace that comes from knowing your love through our faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior-in case we live or die today!

In Jesus' name, Amen
