I’m thankful for the focus of this article on our need to PRAY for those in authority in government.

The Conflict
How do you feel about leaders who hold worldviews that conflict with yours? Do you resent them for espousing secular ethics while you cling to biblical ideals? What about hatred?

I don’t hate him, but I do dislike him on a regular basis. I do try and pray for him. I don’t always pray as much as I should. I try and pray for all people.

Especially his beautiful daughters. This is a very good post and I think I need to share it. It is the season for love and caring.
