Finger-pointing

                                                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                              

The Trump faction's knee-jerk response when they are caught doing wrong is to point their finger at someone else: usually Hilary, Obama, or Democrats.  They seem to miss a couple important things about using that childish tactic:

that "defending" yourself by claiming someone else did just as bad, or worse, makes a tacit admission you did wrong;

and moral law does NOT absolve us of our wrong-doing because other people did it too.


                                                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                              



New Prayer

                                                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                              

Father, you know everyone I want to bring before you in prayer.  You know their names, and my concern for them.  You know better than I do their needs.

Thank you for perfectly remembering each one, even when I momentarily forget a name or need.  Thank you for Your concern for them, Your desire even greater than mine that they be safe, whole, and in peace.  Thank you for your Presence with each of them, blessing.

Thank you for Your limitless power poured out for the abundant life and joy You unceasingly desire for them.

Father, Your will be done.

In Jesus' name.
