A prayer to share:"a wing and a prayer".

    
     Dr. Jordan Peterson shared this following prayer with us. It is a warning to humanity, a warning to the world and a moment of deep thought for all people on Earth who are watching these events unravel. I believe we are at a turning point. Although the struggles we face are seemingly insurmountable, I believe in  a new time coming for all God's children to open themselves to a better life on Earth. 
                                            

                                 A wing and a prayer or the enemy
                                                (This has to stop)
                                           by Dr. Jordan Peterson

     Arrogance, willful blindness, bitterness and resentment
     as I pray that others rise above the same faults
     and temptations.
     I watched "Fox news" release a message this week.
     "There are terrible things afoot, under the surface of our society,
     and the perpetrators are coming for you and are coming for us."
     And then I watched the Democrats respond in panic and anger saying,
     "There are terrible things afoot, under the surface of our society,
     and the perpetrators are coming for you and are coming for us."
     Are there terrible things afoot, bubbling under the surface?
     Is something coming for you and for us?
     Ask yourself how that is of yourself and your own life?
     Have you addressed all that?
     Are you concerning yourself with the dust in your enemy's eyes instead        of attending to the filth that obscures your own sight?
     Do we want accusation, suspicion, discord, derision and hatred?
     Or the peace and prosperity and happiness that beckons to us at this            moment like never before.
     Who's the enemy here? Is it the basket of deplorables? Is it the freaks          and the queers? Is it the plumbers and carpenters and tradesmen and          managers who work honestly and diligently during the day, and the              soldiers who stalwartly defend the borders and protect us? Is it the                artists and visionaries whose expressions of unbridled                                      entertain and rejuvenate us and who continually offer to us an                        unending panoply of technological miracles?
     Is it the institution that guide and protect us that so many lived and        
     died to erect and establish, which for all their faults served us so well?
     Do we want revenge or justice? Do we want contempt or mercy?
     Do we want war or peace?
     And what are you aiming at in your heart of hearts?
     I see even the best of men degenerating into the exchange of blows.
     I see even the best of men identifying the enemy in our neighbors and
     friends.
     I see even the best of men falling prey to cowardice and self-righteous
     anger.
     It needs to stop. I need to stop. You need to stop before it's too late.
     Who is the enemy here?
     The snake in your heart? The lies on your tongue? The arrogance of
     your intellect? The cowardice of our refusal to see?
    The enemy is that which divides and sows discord. The enemy is the
    pride and the fear that stops us from lending a hand across the divide.
     The enemy is the great and eternal adversary of mankind.
     And if we demonize our brothers, and comrades-in-arms,
     do we not precisely call that dread spirit forth?
     Have we not yet learned?
     Courage, trust, truth, love even onto your enemy, which is yourself.
     God forgives us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against
     us.
     May what is highest guide our vision.
     May what is highest open our ears.
     May what is highest guide our tongues.
     And may we pray, fearful of the hell we could so easily and carelessly
     create, deliver us from evil.
     Shine a light in the corners of our dark hearts, for thine is the kingdom,
     the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen.
