Subject: PASTOR HAS GUTS
It seems prayer still upsets some people. Please read.....
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 speech and _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
Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio
Program, 'The Rest of the Story,' and received a larger
response to this program than any
other he has ever aired.
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.'
If possible, please pass this prayer on to your friends. 'If
you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything.'
Think about this: If you forward this prayer to everyone On
your email list, in less than 30 days it would be heard by
The world.
How many people in your address book will not receive This
prayer.....do you have the guts to pass it on?
I just did!
Men do not fear a powerful and hostile army like the gates
of hell fear the name of Mary.
~St. Bonaventure
