Where Real Life and Faith Come Together
 
Prayer for Tough Times
Tough economic times increase the stress on each of us. Businesses shrink. Pay decreases. Bills pile up. In our families, we tighten our belts. We eat in more. We drive less. And often we worry.

I have met and talked with more people than I can name over the past few months - people who are wearing the stress of this economic downturn.

Thomas Merton wrote an excellent prayer. It fits well for a time like this, so I share it with you with gladness.

My Lord God,
I have no idea where I am going.
I do not see the road ahead of me.

I cannot know for certain where it will end.
Nor do I really know myself,
and the fact that I think that I am following
your will
does not mean that I am actually doing so.

But I believe that the desire to please you does in
fact please you.
And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing.
I hope that I will never do anything apart from that
desire.
And I know that if I do this,
you will lead me by the right road though I may
know nothing about it.

Therefore will I trust you always
though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow
of death.
I will not fear, for you are ever with me,
and you will never leave me to face my perils
alone.

Amen.

Description
The Allen Hunt Show is about faith and life, plain and simple. According to a Gallup Poll in May of 2005, 85% of Americans consider their faith important or fairly important to their lives. Yet there is a gap on the talk radio airwaves that examines where faith and life come together. This show fills that gap like nothing currently on the radio. This is not one more political talk show, nor is it another faith-based counseling show because ultimately, life is not about what is right or left, but about what is right and wrong. The Allen Hunt Show takes on real life issues, with real life people, to see how faith can have a real impact. Join us on Saturdays from 9-12 PM and Sundays from 6-9 PM. Blessings!
