Decide in advance to obey, as you pray this Lazaroo:
“I urge, then, first of all, that…prayers…be made for everyone…”
(1 Timothy 2:1)
I don’t mind praying for good people, Jesus
friends, family
children, the elderly
those sick and hurting.
However…when you tell me to pray for “everyone”…
that includes evil people
terrorists
liars, cheaters
thieves, rapists, murderers
my enemies.
I have to confess, Father: I don’t want to.
But since You say so, I’ll do it.
I’ll pray for them
until I’m forced to pray against them.
