My Prayer

Dear Lord: This year You took my favorite actor, Patrick Swayze; You took my favorite actress, Farah Fawcett; and You took my favorite singer, Michael Jackson. Lord, I just wanted to let You know, my favorite President is Barack Obama. Thank You, Amen.

Re: My Prayer

I think it states something in the bible about talking about Government..

We should pray for government leaders (1 Timothy 2:1-2).

We should honor government leaders (Romans 13:7; 1 Peter 2:17). We should not speak evil of the ruler of our people (Acts 23:2-5; Exodus 22:28).

Romans 13 was Hitler's favorite scripture, I've been told.

Wow. Just wow. This is the kind of stuff that brings fire to my fingertips as I start typing. What an incredible thing for a follower of Christ to write. It just isn't funny.

Yikes! Fire to your fingertips? Better do something, man, too close to hell to be feeling fire at your fingertips.

And yes it is funny, get over it.
