A Prayer for Boston
Yesterday, some person or persons unknown thought it would be a good idea to place bombs at the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Today all we can do is pray for the victims and for all the citizens of this nation and world to embrace peace and justice. O Lord, you are the creator of this world and all the worlds in this universe. We praise you for your obvious overflowing love for all your creatures. While it is true that darkness and evil exist in our world we know that we humans enticed by Satan and his Demons incite evil acts such as yesterday's bombing. Help us dear God to learn to reject the evil and choose the good. May we learn to celebrate the image of God that exists within each member of this human race. Help us to love our neighbors with that same love you showed on Calvary. A love so strong it can bend even the most evil deed toward the peace and justice that God desires for this universe. Teach us to reject all cynicism that would cause us to doubt you. Help u
