In this third week of Advent, I pray for
- a world where young black men (and women) do not get stopped for DWB.
- each person to accept responsibility for their own life and not blame others.
- each of us to stop pointing fingers—and especially guns—at those with whom we do not agree.
- the Body of Christ to care more about caring for others than we do about our own rights.
- children who have been hurt by those who were supposed to care for them.
- understanding others, or at least for accepting them even if I do not understand them.
- a world where good nutrition, health care, and education are not dependent upon where one lives, or how much money one has.
- the Body of Christ to truly reflect the powerful love of God that set the entire Creation into motion.
- myself to grow into the very image of Christ, the measure of the full stature of Christ.
- for peace for all no matter what religion or non-religion they profess.
Luke 18:1
Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray always
and not to lose heart.
