Prayer Ping....

If anybody wants to join me in praying for the jury during deliberations, I'm going to set aside some time every day. The two or more gathered together principle, don't ya know.

I'm thinking the jury deliberations, since they're not going to be sequestered, may begin daily around 9:00 Pacific Time, which would be 10 am Mountain, 11 am Central, and noon Eastern time. So that's when I'll be praying. Noon my time. You are all welcome to join me.


The Prayer


Lord, grant these twelve jurors great wisdom to understand all the testimony they have heard over the past two months, and the clarity of mind to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Give them strength to endure, and fill them with a sense of honor and integrity, and the desire to do what is right.

May You shine the light of truth into the darkness of their confusion, that the jurors will discern honesty from those who bear false witness against their neighbor.

Although You say "Justice is Mine," may You see fit to allow justice for Danielle here on this earth, that her death may not lead to the death of other innocents.

We pray that truth will prevail, and that the sword of justice will weigh heavily on those who would use it falsely to bring glory to themselves.

May Your will be done, in Jesus name.

Amen.



Pray for strength and guidance for all of the friends and families involved in this ordeal.

Prayer Ping....

If anybody wants to join me in praying for the jury during deliberations, I'm going to set aside some time every day. The two or more gathered together principle, don't ya know.

Ya know, one of the really strange outcomes of this trial for me is that it has made me re-think my atheism.

I'm a pretty dedicated atheist, so that's something.

At first, the prayers that Sheeza (sp?) and some others were putting up seemed offensive.

There is a conundrum here, however.

I don't know for certain whether DW did or did not do that crime. I do think the prosection has not proven that he did it, and I would vote to acquit him if I was a one of the jurors.

But, what if he did?

I find myself hoping there is a heaven and a hell. Whoever did that to Danielle deserves a place in hell.

If DW did not do it and gets convicted, I hope there is a heaven.

So, atheist that I am, I will join with you in your prayer. God grant this jury the strength and the wisdom to do their best.
