Acts 23:5 "I'm sorry, brothers. I didn't realize he was the high priest," Paul replied, "for the Scriptures say, 'you must not speak evil of any of your rulers.'"
My Thoughts
Oh this is such a fitting scripture for the 4th of July. As citizens it is our duty to elect a president...to go out and vote! We get the opportunity to vote this person out of office in four years if we do not like what he/she is doing. But while any person is president of our wonderful United States we need to pray for them, we need to speak highly of them and we need to support them. The Scriptures tell us to do this. God tells us what is best. With such mass media that we can all be a part of... blogs, facebook etc. people from all over the world can see how we feel. We need to present ourselves as a united front. We don't do that when we trash our president. If we don't like what our president stands for we need to pray and pray some more... but we still need to support him/her. We became a strong nation because we are United... we can become weak by being divided. The enemy looks for the cracks in our armor. Thumpers mother, from Bambi, put it well when she said "If you can't say something nice, don't say nothin' at all." God knew when He put these words in the Scriptures how to keep a nation strong. We need to listen.
