Be enthusiastic for Ukraine, but let's dilute that with caution. We do not want an all out war. The war in Ukraine is terrible, but a world war is worse to the millionth degree. As Christians, we are to always use prayer for God's advice and direction before intercession. Putin is being used by God for a reason like he used the Babylonian King, Nebuchadnezzar. And will turn his wrath on Putin after he has served God's will. Give God's will a chance, and lean on our Lord.
The largest and most far-reaching effects of war are deaths, funerals, prisoners of war that are tortured, the maimed that live with their tragedies for the rest of their lives, and the displaced and homeless. Enthusiastic patriotism in small doses at the right moments can be a positive, but in large doses, produce tyrants such as Hitler, Stalin, and Putin.
Love and pray for you all!
