It’s always important to remember to pray for all of our nation’s leaders, even if we might not always agree with them.
Josh over at Josh in the Box urges us to pray for Rep. Julia Carson who was recently diagnosed with terminal lung cancer.
I know that may sound odd coming from a conservative Republican website. I have written my share of posts showing a lack of support for Congresswoman Carson, but when a person is diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, even if that person is a political opponent, your heart goes out to that person.
I missed seeing the paper this morning, but I heard about Congresswoman Carson’s condition at church. I attend a fairly conservative church, but we pray for our elected officials no matter if we agree with them or not. We prayed for her and her family. Congresswoman Carson also claims to be a religious person, so we prayed that God would draw her closer to Him at this time and that she would find comfort in His strength.
Despite what you may think of Julia Carson, I ask that you do the same and lift her up in your prayers. You don’t have to agree with someone to pray for them. All politics aside, she is an elected official and is deserving of such respect.

You don’t wish lung cancer on your worst enemy. It is by far the worst kind of cancer. It takes you quick, there’s not much that doctors can do to fight it.
She does need everyone’s prayers.
It is great to see that people are putting aside partisan differences to reach out to each other spiritually during a time of need.
