Dear Father,
So...today we got to hear recordings of the president discussing paying off a Playboy model with his ex-lawyer. Let me begin by saying I don't feel like listening to anything about casting the first stone. I know I'm a sinner. I know I've done some pretty deplorable things. So forgive me for those, but can you please, Lord, open people's eyes and hearts on this one? When will your church stand up and call him out? When is too much too much?
Help me to know what I'm afraid of...and to pray more specifically about that. I think I'm afraid that truth doesn't matter anymore. That dignity and integrity don't matter anymore. I'm afraid that your church is associated with all of this in the eyes of the unbelievers.
Help me put my faith in you. Restore your Eden in my life; help me shed my sense of responsibility for doing what only you can do. I know you have allowed him to be in power for a reason. May that reason glorify you. Not the Evangelical right, not the moral majority, not me. May your perfect plan be something I put my trust in.
Amen.
Oh yes. I'm supposed to pray for him. In love. I pray that he has a good night's rest tonight and wakes up refreshed and positive.
