Read Proverbs 21:1  Did you know that God is in charge of everything?  We have different leaders in charge of our governments.  You have a mayor who is in charge of your city.  Do you know the name of your mayor?   Do you know the name of the governor of your state? Do you know the name of your president?  You need to know the names of your leaders so that you can pray for them.  But our verse says that although we may think that these leaders are in charge, God is really in charge of them!  Our verse also gives us an example.  The water in a river moves along downstream, but we can take a paddle and stir the water and move it around.  That is the way that God works.  God can put thoughts into the hearts and minds of our leaders.  These powerful leaders may even think that these thoughts are their own ideas, but they are actually thoughts that were put there by God Himself.  God is much better at leading us than any of our human leaders are.  Oh, they may think that they are in charge, but God is actually in charge of them!  And God always does what is right.  He is a perfect leader!  I am glad that God is in charge of our leaders, who are in charge of our governments, who are in charge of us.  Let's pray to God thst He would direct our leaders to lead us the right way.
