Day 296: Jeremiah 8-9; 1 Timothy 2

Do you identify with Jeremiah? With God?
I am broken by the brokenness
of my dear people.
I mourn; horror has taken hold of me.
Is there no balm in Gilead?
Is there no physician there?
So why has the healing of my dear people
not come about? (Jeremiah 8:21-22, CSB)


Paul's call to prayer is the answer:
First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for everyone,  for kings and all those who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity. This is good, and it pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. (1 Timothy 2:1-4, CSB)

Come, let us pray!
