“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked bearth rule, the people mourn.”(Proverbs 29:2)

 “I exhort therefore, that , first of all, supplications, prayers, intersessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings (Presidents), and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” (1 Timothy 2:1-3)

 

Dring this difficult time in our country, coming from many directions, let us be thankful for where God has placed us and be vigilant to pray for those in authority over us.

 Yours in Christ,

Carl
