The first two verses of this chapter are timely for us in this political season. Verses 1 and 2 says, 1 I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone– 2 for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. No matter who is in power and controlling our government, God is still in control and allowing us to live according to His perfect plan. We should always pray for our leaders and ask God to work through them no matter who they are or what they stand for.

As for the second half of the chapter… I’m not going there!
