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.'

 

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 entire world.
