Last week was a tough week.
A tough week to follow a tough year.
Today, let’s pray for the broken.
- Let’s pray that we could repair our racial tensions.
- Let’s pray for small businesses. That they could pay their rent and their employees.
- Let’s pray for our prisoners and law breakers and broken.
- Let’s pray for our homeless population.
- Let’s pray for our police officers and firemen and those who work so diligently to protect us.
- Let’s pray for all of our national leaders. That they would listen to the people and to each other. That they would seek not to position, but to listen.
One of the reasons that I love coaching is that we, in sports, have been able to make it work. We have black, and white, and brown. We have liberals, and conservatives, and independents. We have rich, and poor. We have Christians, and Muslims, and atheists. And, most of the time, we have figured out how to get along in a highly competitive environment. So I know that it can be done.
But as I say that, I want to have compassion for those who are desperate:
So let’s purpose pray for those who have to worry about tomorrow—what they will eat, where they will live, and how they will survive.
Matthew 6 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
And as we do that, let’s ask ourselves—-
What can we do so that someone else can live out Matthew 6:34.
How can we help?
How can we aid them into being in a position to not be in a place of desperation?
Have a great week.
Seek the Living God and ask for His help in being a part of healing the broken.
In The Name of the Father and the
Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Amen Coach! We are to be the hands and feet of Jesus, reaching out to the lost, hurting, downtrodden. It doesn’t have to be financial. The gift of time and caring is just as important.
Blessings to you and your beautiful family!
