Time it was Said !

This Pastor Has Guts:.....and may the Good Lord Bless his
ministries.

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 for 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 and many

other countries of the world both free and opressed.

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 e-mail 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!

It is OK if some folks get it twice ...they probably need it !
