Pray for the world's leaders!

Lord, I lift up the leaders of our world.
It seems the world has become so angry and hostile.
Have mercy on those being persecuted,
those doing the persecution, turn their hearts to You as You did Paul the apostle.
Let our leaders turn their hearts and eyes to You.
Please have mercy on us!

Open our eyes to see You,
to see You at work through the day.

"The horror, the horror!"
In the classic, the Heart of Darkness, we see our own heart of darkness
and sinfulness.  Please help us not to get overwhelmed with our own sinfulness.

Free us from 
Pointing the finger at others,
Fear,
Anxiety,
Cowardice.

We don't need to impose our thinking upon others, or attempt to force them to agree with our
conclusions of faith, we simply need to let them see You as we cooperate with Your leading.

Help us to know You, see You,
and share Your workings in our lives.

Help us to encourage each other to seek You.
Help us encourage each other to good works.
