>This is why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, who 
>give their full time to governing. Give everyone what you owe him. If you 
>owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; 
>if honor, then honor.
>--Romans 13:6-7
>New International Version

>THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY'S VERSE...
>Owe! Tax day. Not my favorite, how about yours? But where would we be 
>without government, order and laws? While we may not like how the system 
>functions today, what if we had no system? Let's be redemptive in our 
>living and obedient in our citizenship.
>
>MY PRAYER...
>Holy God, I thank you that I am free in you and belong to no man or power. 
>Yet because I want your name to be respected, I pledge to obey the laws of 
>this land as long as they do not run directly in contradiction to your 
>will. At the same time, I fervently pray that you heal our land. Through 
>Jesus I pray. Amen.
