Reading: Matthew 2:3-4
Proud
and cruel, the King in his palace; yet Herod lives also in fear. He
knows that many don't see him as the proper King; he only rules
because Rome lets him. So he sits, and frets, and gets involved in
political intrigue; he must know at once of anyone that may try and
usurp him. So he watches, and waits; so far, he has been safe, but
he's a wily old fox, and the price of his power is eternal vision.
The people are looking for a new king? Well, so is he - and he's
determined he'll get there first....
Prayer
Point: Pray that those with power in this world will also seek the
ways of peace, wisdom, justice and mercy.
