Today is the day of prayer for the media in the UK (Sun 17th May).
Pray 4 Media
Are the media and politicians modern-day scribes and pharisees?

Yeah, I'm grateful for the media. Thanks Lord! Anything else? Anything I can affect?

I don't think anyone expects any of us to change the world, but surely what you are doing with your writing is making a positive difference Martin?

Hoo boy Alyosha! My one liners, my being engaged here in dubious battle? Every idle word that I must give account for? That is a challenge to raise my game that I cannot begin to match I fear.

I notice the prayer seems to be about those who are in danger. Surely its the ones who, in no danger, are happy to tap phones, misrepresent, harass and 'doorstep' anyone they feel like who need prayers -- or maybe it's their victims.
