PASTOR WITH GUTS!!!!!!

   When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new
   session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual
   generalities, but instead 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 withonly 47 Of those calls responding negatively. The church is now receiving international requests for copies of this prayer from India, Africa andKorea

   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 or for nothing at all."

   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!
