my version of news reading

i'm not much of a news person - i don't follow newspaper or news on tv or on radio. in fact, i switch channel every time news come on tv or radio. hehe... it's just me.
but nowadays, i read news everyday... the artiste news - online lah...
i also asked myself why do i do that?
and recently God answered me... it's for me to pray for them, doinkdoink! so what if i'm not in the industry where the who's who are? i'm not there but God is there! so i started to pray as i read the entertainment news.

yesterday, i read a news that gripped me. so i left my table and went to pray in pastor's room (he was not there)...
i read on yahoo that britney lost her 2 sons' custody to her ex-husband and now trying to appeal.
of course she lost because of the risky lifestyle in drugs, booze, partying and driving recklessly with the boys in the car.
i'm not defending her and denying all that she's doing. neither am i siding k fed that he should have the kids.
i'm not sure but i don't think BOTH of them are showing signs of being a good role model to the kids but when i read the news, i was sadden to think that the children are taken from the mother - regardless who she is, i'm sure a mother loves her kids. and to be taken from her would be a sad thing. and in this case, adding on to the hurts that she's already experiencing with her broken family, her career, dropped by her management company, so just maybe... she's hiding it all in a drunk moment...
i'm sure God's heart is saddens too to see His child now - a Christian robbed by the shining lights of fame.
*disclaimer: if u do not agree with me, i want to say that it's just my thoughts. i didnt research about it but who would rejoice over such matters..

Lord, i come before you and pray for Britney again. i pray that you would be evidently at work in her life again at this time when she needs you a lot. pick her out from the ditch and turn her around and set her on the right path again. i pray Lord, for your hands to be in control of the parenting-custody-lawsuit she's contending for. Let your will be done in each of the person's life - britney's, kevin's, sean's and jayden' - i really pray for your intervention into this family so that the children will grow up to honor you, establish your house and advance your kingdom! Lord, mercy and grace upon the family. in jesus' name i ask. amen.
