Thought of the Day: Presidents’ Day

“First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time.” (1 Timothy 1-6)

We don’t have to agree with all people, but it is always best to agree with God who loves us and will forgive us in the name of Jesus. We are all called to love and pray for all people. God loves all people, and He is our good and great example. Pray that all people will receive eternal salvation through Christ Jesus. Eternity is a long time, God forgives us and prays for us, then we are to love, forgive and pray for others.

“Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice…” (1 Samuel 15:22b)
