See also: Is. 51:11, Eccl. 3:4.            

8.     Let us pray and ask God to bless our nation with such kind of people filled with creativity, godliness, and sensitivity to the Spirit. “For I have chosen him so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just, so that the LORD will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him.” (Genesis 18:19).
