My Prayer (06/15/16)

Lord, it's Wednesday and I'm busy preparing prayer meeting tonight.  Honestly, I haven't thought much about what happened Sunday in Orlando, Florida.  It isn't that I think it's insignificant.  It's that there are so many things competing for my attention and I've chosen unwisely. Truthfully, this detachment is only because the horror didn't happen to someone I know and it didn't occur in my community.

How cold!  How uncaring of me!  And that is the issue -- I've been too preoccupied with self, too preoccupied with my own little world to care. I invite Your hand to be heavy on me as You prod me to change.  My lack of prayer is an affront to You and it is a horrible example.

Whether it was a crowd or an individual You wanted to help, You always felt compassion.  Let me feel what You feel.  Help me unblock this indifference.
