While watching the escalating violence in Iraq essentially along "religious" lines and pondering the proper response to the potential human disaster shaping up...I was drawn to the inescapable fact that WE right here in the good old USA are setting a poor (IMHO) example and especially those of us who claim to be Christian...for example there is no end of vitriol that is poured on our president, both political parties indeed all elected officials...(not without good cause I might add)...but I might suggest gently that there is a more "spiritual" response to the madness that seems to be increasing exponentially every single day and all around the world as well... my suggestion is based on two short passages of Scripture; Pro 21:1 The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will. 1Ti 2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 1Ti 2:2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 1Ti 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; it to me is very much like that old saw "better to light one candle than to curse the darkness"....
