3. All the young people! Special prayer for young black men who seem to be a target.

4. Peace in America, we are in deep trouble as a nation of greed, death, and immorality.

5. My son in Japan.

6. My eldest son trying to be a thoughtful, educated, 21, black, American.

7. My youngest daughter and all other kids with chronic illnesses...and their parents.

8. Decent and affordable health care in America.

9. ELECTION DAY 2008 and INAUGURAL DAY 2009...A CHANGE HAS TO COME!!!!

10. My little corner of the world as we work through race relations.

11. The wealthy to know you really don't need another Prada or your 16 year old in a Mercedes!

12. The poor to know God has got your back and stop making Wal*Mart wealthy!

13. White people to stop being scared of black people, we are AMERICANS TOO!
