Some of us old timers think about a simpler time. June was busy getting dinner in a peaceful home. Ward would come home from work as an exemplary employee, father and husband. The Beaver would be just the kind of polite, considerate young boy that anyone would want to raise. Wally always did his high school homework and was never swayed by his wise-guy friend Eddie Haskell to do wrong. Politics was never a part of programing.
That time has come and gone. It probably only really existed at the end of some sitcom writer’s pen. This real world of ours is much nastier, especially when it comes to politics. The body of Christ is given some good advice in how to address our present age.
1 Timothy 2:1-2
I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.
The way to change the hostile environment in our day is on our knees.
Think about it.
