One Way to Pray Today

I think this would be a good time for Christians in the United States to increase their prayers for our leaders and representatives in the White House and in the Congress--that God would give them wisdom and maturity and humility as they seek to divert a massive economic catastrophe:

I urge that
supplications,
prayers,
intercessions,
and thanksgivings
be made . . . for kings
and all who are in high positions,
that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life,
godly and dignified in every way.
This is good,
and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior.

1 Timothy 2:1-3
