For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

A Pastor with guts! ... Thx Nana and good friend, Marge R!


A Pastor with GUTS!
 
 
Thought you might enjoy this interesting prayer given in Kansas at the opening session of their Senate. It seems prayer still upsets some people... When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they heard: 

Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask
your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those
who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we
have done. 
 
We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. 

We have exploited the poor and called it
 the lottery. 
 
We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare. 

We have killed our unborn and called it
 choice. 
 
We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.
 
We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem.
 
We have abused power and called it politics.
 
We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition. 

We have polluted the air with profanity and
pornography and called it freedom of expression. 
 
We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.
 
Search us, Oh, God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free.
Amen!
 
 
The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked out during the prayer in protest. In 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Rev. Wright is pastor, logged more than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 of those calls responding negatively. The church is now receiving international requests for copies of this prayer from India, Africa and Korea . 
                                                   
 
With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called 'one nation under God.'
                                                       
Think about this: If you forward this
prayer to everyone on your e-mail list, in less than 30 days it would be heard by the entire world.
