“But to you who are willing to listen, I say, love your enemies! Do good to those who hate you. Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who hurt you Luke 6:27-28
I’m guessing that you already know which candidates you will be voting for in upcoming primary elections and the general election in November. For my international readers, I would imagine that you too have candidates for elections whom you favor, and those whom you oppose.
My word to you today is simple, but perhaps not easy. Pray for that candidate whom you oppose. I mean spend a little time interceding for that person, and maybe those who support that candidate as well.
I am not saying that you need to change your mind or your vote. You probably won’t. But it may just change your heart just a little bit. At any rate, we are simply doing what Jesus told us to do, so we cannot go wrong, right?
Prayer: Lord, thank you for the direction that can change our hearts, Amen
