1 Timothy 2:1-3 (MSG) - Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know. Pray especially for rulers and their governments to rule well so we can be quietly about our business of living simply, in humble contemplation. This is the way our Savior God wants us to live. -- I can't help but notice the urgency in Paul's writing in that first sentence. Pray every way, and for everyone. That's what we should be doing all the time. The second part of that passage states that God wants us to live simply, free from distractions. We should always be in an attitude of "humble contemplation." How are you praying and living?
