I have a simple request for you, God, this morning.
I’m asking for the good.
It isn’t because I am so much good as that I ache for good, but I do ache for more good, and less evil.
God will you encourage, protect, prosper and generally and in every possible known way to heaven empower anyone on earth who is doing good today?
Leaders, teachers, pastors, therapists, nurses, homemakers, business people, entertainers, sports figures, doctors, parents, grandparents, siblings — will you please greatly encourage and help anyone who is in a role where they are doing good?
Being gentle,
Being moral,
Being loving,
Being kind,
Bringing justice.
Giving to others,
Protecting the innocent.
Not shaming,
Not blaming,
Not being greedy,
Not oppressing,
Not being violent,
Not being sexually inappropriate,
Protecting little ones,
Protecting powerless ones.
God, we beg you, will you live super- duper-powerfully today in those who are making our world better?
We ask you to defeat evil and prosper good in and by and for those who are …
Buiding something good,
Restoring something good,
Adding value,
Inspiring hope.
Loving love.
This is our simple.
Immediate.
Appropriate.
Request.
Today.
AMEN, AND LET IT BEGIN WITH ME
