Today’s reading is Revelation 6. 
“When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.”

‭‭Revelation‬ ‭6:3-4‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,
This stands out because John says, “Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth”. Do you sense peace on the earth now? We do seem to have a peace that shouldn’t be here with all the amount of issues that could take peace away. We do seem to have a protective covering that God keeps about the earth until He decides to take it away. Please pray that we and our friends are grateful for the peace that we receive as a fruit of the Spirit (Gal 5:22). Please pray for Michael Escoe’s group.
