Pastor With Guts!

I think the whole world needs more leaders like this.



I really think this is what our country needs at this moment.


A Pastor with GUTS!!

Thought you might enjoy this interesting prayer given in Kansasat
the opening session of their Senate. It seems prayer still upsets some
people. When Minister Joe Wright w as 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.

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 everything.'

How many people in your address book will not receive this prayer ???

Do you have the guts to pass it on?

I did!!!

Love & God Bless!!!

And for those who don't want to put God in there, it's just plain old ethics.
Very courageous ! Definitely to be passed on.
