@weedyrs@churchtalkative A main reason the Bible says to be kind to other people is not to help other people, but to develop your personal character…to give and not take. But a nice byproduct is other people get helped at the same time.
@Jason_R_Burt In the late 60s, Charles de Gaulle said to Dean Rusk, “I want every American out of France.” Rusk replied, “Does that include the Americans buried in Normandy?” De Gaulle walked out without saying word.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Giver of Life, we bow our heads in prayer as we entrust the United States of America to your loving care. You are the rock on which this nation was founded. You alone are the true source of our cherished rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Reclaim this land for your glory and dwell among your people.
Send Your Spirit to touch the hearts of our nation’s leaders. Open their minds to the great worth of human life and the responsibilities that accompany human freedom. Remind Your people that true freedom can exist when we cast aside hate and find our commonalities rather than shame one another over our differences.
Bless You for your divine intervention and protection yesterday when those who wish to destroy our country failed and we are humbled by Your power and mercy.
We lift our country up before You asking to restore righteousness and integrity. In Jesus name we pray, Amen
NIGERIA—There are reports of ongoing mass slaughter of Christians by Islamists—religious persecution of the highest order.
Yet, rarely does one hear about the suffering of these people. No word propagated by the Media, or Influencers on how to aid them.
Why might that be?
