Peace in the Face of Power

“The Lord is in his holy temple; he rules the earth from his throne in heaven.” (Psalm 11: 4)

Earthly rulers may seem powerful and fail; but God’s power is ultimate and won’t.

Lord,

   The powerful seem so far away from your righteousness,

      Yet, you rule with unlimited power and righteousness.

   Forgive me for fearing earthly powers and failing to trust in your power,

      Instead help me to rest in your power and forget about earthly powers,

      Let me see your power work and overcome those powers which work against you.

Amen
