1 Timothy 2:8 NASB "Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger and dispute."I waited till their meal was over and they were on their way out! Today's verse speaks about men and prayer, praying without anger or dispute! As we sat and ate our meal, we noticed a man and his wife sit down at a near by table. They ordered their meal and when it arrived, they grabbed hands and bowed their heads and the man began to pray. I am not sure what he prayed for but that's not important. What's important is that he took the time to pray, in a crowded restaurant, not caring what other would say. As they passed to leave, I simply said "nice to see you pray for your meal!". Having the courage to pray in every place, like today's scripture shares is a matter of choice and commitment. Have we become so fearful of what the world may say about how men pray in public? Let's think about praying in every place, giving thanks to God for the blessings and the struggles that make us stronger, and for those in need. It always comes down to choice! Make the right one today! peace, tom
