Daily (Dennis Prager–style) Digital Life Litany for Protection, Direction and Stewardship



Caveat emptier: This post was drafted with help from an AI assistant (Perplexity)— but ideated and edited extensively by the human, Bill Acton

Wikipedia

Lord,
you know I have spent years
trying to clarify ideas,
to make sense
of right and wrong
for ordinary people.

In this age
when anyone can broadcast instantly,
teach me to use that power
with reverence.

Help me speak plainly
without becoming simplistic,
to disagree strongly
without dehumanizing,
to explain my convictions
without mocking those
who do not share them.

Protect me from the temptation
to chase numbers—
views, likes,
and “engagement”—
at the expense of clarity and fairness.

Guard my digital life
from laziness and impulsiveness:
let me check sources,
read opposing views,
and think twice
before I add fuel
to a fire that already
burns too hot.

And grant that my stewardship
of these tools
reflects a commitment
to reasoned argument,
moral seriousness,
and goodwill—
so that, even where I am certain,
I still remember
the humanity
of those who remain unconvinced.
