20. Blessed be the name of God forever and ever,(ital added)
to whom belong wisdom and might.
21 He changes times and seasons;
he removes kings and sets up kings;
he gives wisdom to the wise
and knowledge to those who have understanding;
22 he reveals deep and hidden things;
he knows what is in the darkness,
and the light dwells with him.
23 To you, O God of my fathers,
I give thanks and praise,
for you have given me wisdom and might,
and have now made known to me what we asked of you,
for you have made known to us the king's matter.”

This morning I woke up with 1 Tim 2:1-3 in my mind. It was good to be reminded about a bigger picture view of leadership and how to pray for them.
