Here’s an excellent word for every believer.
“If you are wise and understand God’s ways, prove it by living an honorable life, doing good works with the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you are bitterly jealous and there is selfish ambition in your heart, don’t cover up the truth with boasting and lying. For jealousy and selfishness are not God’s kind of wisdom. Such things are earthly, unspiritual, and demonic. For wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and evil of every kind.
But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and the fruit of good deeds. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere. And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness.” James 3: 13-18 (NLT).

As we stand with Erika Kirk and celebrate the life of #CharlieKirk , we can take solace in these verses and many others. We who know Christ, understand our times are in his hands, and that some of us are called to martyrdom. God’s word is clear about this. #death #ErikaKirk
Please pray for leaders and influencers that God places on your heart. It can be a quick (silent) Nehemiah prayer. Pray that God will protect them and draw them ever closer to him.
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5 (NIV),.
