House Arrest

With everything going on in my beautiful country, this I did not see coming! I was on my way to town and I got a phonecall telling me not to go into town. Riots gone bad and turned violent. And I freaked out!!!

So now most Ugandans are on house arrest for God knows how long! I wish I could understand how we get ourselves in such messes but here we are and the only one person we can look to for safety and help is the Lord.

So......

Lord I pray that you will protect you country an dyour people, birth in us hearts of compassion and peace and love, let us be united for there in lies our strength. Break all barriers of tribalism and pride and anger...free us form ourselves. Have mercy on us oh Lord. You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil; with you the wicked cannot dwell. The arrogant cannot stand in your persence; you hate all who do wrong. But by your great mercy we come to you Oh Lord, pleading for our land and for it's people, it's children and it's future. We take refuge in you, our hiding place.

We palce our leaders in to your hands and all the decision makers...that You will have your way in their decisions. Arise oh Lord, Awake and take your place, in Jesus' name I pray, AMEN
