I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people - for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time.
Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands without anger or disputing.
~I Timothy 2:1-6, 8~

Prayer for our leaders! What a great alternative to so much of the noise!
ReplyDeleteAmen to Michele's comment. And verse 4 gives me so much hope with my lost loved ones.

How awesome would that be to see everyone in unison doing that!
My word of the year is prayer - yet again (this will make the 3rd year) - it's a pressing in and pressing in - and learning more and more about the power of it. Prayer can go where I cannot - Thank you for this reminder - and an affirmation! Shalom in your 2022!
