Prayed For Putin's Death

It was a prayer muttered out of frustration with his blatantly hypocritical and evil ways concerning Ukraine.

I realized I was wrong immediately after the prayer.

Have you ever prayed for the death of another country's leader?

To be honest, I shocked myself with my actions this morning. I didn't think I had it in me to do something so clearly wrong, in the Name of Jesus.

What causes you to be so stirred about the Ukraine? Just curious.

Sadly, Putin might actually be the only thing standing in the way of a Muslim conquest of the European continent.

I'm actually more angry at the USA for the way we forced Serbia to surrender Kosovo to the Muslims. I hope Russia rights that wrong someday.

I've read Psalms 109:8 many times, but as hoping for resignation or impeachment.

They are people.

What has been done is so blatantly wrong.

What causes others to not care about Ukraine-- that is what baffles me.

Seriously, what stops a leader from doing what Putin did and is doing with Ukraine-- I guess nothing nowadays.

Good people are saying and doing nothing and evil is prospering.

Different situations and there aren't lies being spun to the world by the aggressors about the nature of what is happening.

Re: Prayed For Putin's Death

The stories of other nations doesn't grab at my sense of morals like Ukraine grabs at my sense of moral obligation to do something.

I also sense fear as being a major reason for the American government's weak response to Russia's naked and ugly aggression.

Though it incidentally ended a great evil, what Abraham Lincoln and the Republicans did from 1861-1877 was the greatest crime of the 19th century. So I have a hard time getting all excited about Europe. As far as I'm concerned Western Europeans have judged themselves unworthy of freedom.
As far a Ukraine goes, they should have never given up their nukes.
