                                 PRAYER

  Pastor Phil Waldrep, Phil Waldrep Ministries, Decatur, Alabama, 
offered the following prayer:
  Our Eternal God, today, we pause to thank You for Your blessings and 
to ask that You remind us that with these blessings come 
responsibilities.
  So, we ask that You will quieten our hearts that we might find time 
to listen to the dreams of a child or the memories of an older adult.
  Help us to find time to thank a teacher, or a veteran, or someone who 
puts their life at risk every day that we might be free.
  Help us to find time to assist the families of military personnel and 
time to pray for the safety of their loved one.
  Help us to find time to see the needs, and the gifts, and the worth 
of others.
  O Lord, help us to find time to be Your hands and Your feet in a 
world that desperately needs love.
  In Jesus' name, amen.
