            O Lord GOD,As I survey the stormy economic seas troubling  our nation, troubling me,my family,my friends,my community,I ask  Lord that we may steady ourselves in these winds of change,by reaching out to you,by being stronger servants,O Lord God,You banished Adam from the garden for  disobedience.You told him to work with the scare resources of the earth.I ask Lord that we may learn to manage our resources more wisely,by reaching out to you,being wiser stewards.O Lord God,You told the rich young ruler to give everything up and follow,You understand  the material walls we build to shut you out,I ask Lord that we may constantly seek to break  down the  barriers,By  reaching out to you,being better disciples.O Lord God,You provide all that we need  to live a life fulfilled,You never abandon us  even when we are  selfish  and  foolish,I ask Lord,that we may see the wealth we have in joy,By reaching out,being dependant only on you.O Lord God,You  sustain your faithful people  through good times and bad,You know  when we fail and when we are faithful yo your will,I ask Lord that we show the '' GOSPEL'' in the midst of '' ECONOMIC  CONFUSION,'' by reaching out to you,being beacon of your'' WORD.''Amen...Amen!!!
