Donald Trump’s Response to John McCain’s Death Reminds Us Just How Petty He Is - (The New Yorker)
Father,
I know I've deliberately picked headlines that mirror my views on this presidency. But on the other hand, there are some situations in life that can only be viewed a certain way. Donald Trump is petty, right Lord? I mean, right???
I am sighing right now. Not sure what to pray about. I am sad that John McCain is dead only because he is a reminder that the other side is not completely crazy. Please allow something of his spirit to remain behind. Allow the president to be forgiving of those he feels have hurt him. Allow his heart to experience generosity, mercy, love. Thank you that he kept his mouth shut when the reporters asked him to make impromptu comments about McCain. Thank you that he had that much self-control, lest he say something completely idiotic and hurtful to McCain's family. Bless that family and be with them.
Lord, I pray - I truly pray that you would bring this man down. I mean it. I hope that you do it, and that you do it peacefully, with an abundance of evidence that he is not worthy of the office. And then usher in an era of healing and soul-searching. Take this country where you want it to go. I believe in this country, Lord. And I believe in your power to make it a light on a hill, as it once was.
Amen.
