O Lord, your strength gives joy to the king ~Psalm 21:2This verse from today's Office of Readings hit me this morning. How many of today's political "rulers" take joy in the strength of God rather than in their own political strength? How many people in positions of power of any type, do what is truly right by God's standards instead of what will keep them in power and help them save face?
How many of us who are not in power demand what is right from those who are? How many of us settle for the status quo?
Pray for those in power, in government, business and in the Church.
Very good questions. One thing we always have is the power of prayer.
