Tuesday Prayer....

There are so many things to pray for, Holy One...
So much in the world....
The family who lost their child--a young soldier, to an IED....
The other family who is welcoming home their soldier after a year in Afghanistan....
The debt crisis...and prayers for wisdom for leaders in the US to be courageous and not stupid....
For those who worry about everything...
For those who are lonely and desperate....
For those who are so happy today, relaxing, free, on vacation, thank goodnesss....
For those who have no idea what is in their future...
For those dissappointed, by--whatever---
For those who are sad...
For those who are depressed....
For those who feel accomplished....
For....
(fill in the blank like a million times.......)
For this and everything and everyone we long to pray for but have not the words or thoughts...

O God, hear our prayer.
Amen.

For Norway and her people.

For those who live and work within the area of agriculture. This second drought in as many years, is difficult not only in financial terms, but also emotional and spiritual. It is difficult to watch beautiful stalks of corn roll and bend because there is not moisture.
