Reminders Needed

Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men. Titus 3:1-2

Today we observe a moment of silence for those whose lives were taken on 9/11. You do not need a reminder of this date, and you can probably tell me where you were when the news first broke of the terrorist attacks. For other things in our walk with Jesus, we need a reminder now and then. One of those reminders that Paul wrote to Titus in a letter, will be tested on us no matter which of the candidates debating last night becomes the next President of the United States. Of course there could yet be a candidate who was not invited to the show that takes the election from 'out of nowhere'. When the election is decided, we will need to be ready to speak evil of no one, as Paul wrote, and to be peaceable. This scripture for today lays out several things that are not so easy for us to do in politics or in anything else. There is only one answer for that: take it to the Lord in prayer!

Peaceable love to you in Christ our Lord!
