just want to talk to you
Food for Thought
This past week has been filled with sorrow and despair. Charlie Kirk, the victims in Colorado and the countless souls that were lost because of senseless acts of violence. What has become of our world where people can have different opinions but still be civil? I remember when you could go riding on your bike with friends and didn't have to worry about being abducted. Life was so care free not so long ago. However, that is not our world today. We have talks of wars and wars. Brother against brother; children against their parents and on and on. There is something that every Christian can do.......pray without ceasing. Pray for our lands and government. Pray for your neighbors. Pray for your pastors. Pray for your children and grandchildren. Pray for your coworkers. Pray for yourself. Pray for others believers in other countries who face persecution everyday. Pray for those soul who have willingly given the ultimate price for their belief in Christ.
We, the body of Christ must take a stand against evil in this world because when we pray, we give God permission to enter into the chaos of this world. Pray for me as I pray for you. Thanks for listening.
Be blessed. Live blessed.
