Protect our moron congregation

Sunday prayer service

The philosopher Morrison argued, "You cannot petition the Lord with prayer." And it is presumptuous, even superstitious, to presume that mortal supplications might change the will of the Almighty. Whatever we need, God already knows. Whatever we ask for, God's already answered. If prayer has purpose, it is not to motivate the Almighty, but to bring our minds closer to his will.

Yet, just as God has given us hands and minds to alter our physical environment, perhaps we have some power over what you might call our spiritual environment. However it might work, let us pray to our heavenly parent, please bring healing to our world. Inspires our great nation to rediscover truth and justice. Protect our family, our moron congregation. Give healing where you can, and strength where healing is not possible, to those who need it.

I'm new at this and I didn't keep notes this week. Help me remember. Carol T's brother needs our prayers. Also I'm bad at who's who. The daughter with the infection. The additional incurable ailment. The new little baby. Those who have lost loved ones. The tumor. And Mrs mindful's health, if I may.

God help heal & deal with the little things, too, like, soften Vic's driveway. Keep our fury righteous and focused. Bless our hosts with liberty to continue this sometimes-important work, and all the little commenters at sea.

Thanks for keeping the USA out of Syria this week; keep it up. Thanks for the stage of this fascinating planet, for life, opportunity, and each other to love. Jesus, please pass this along with judicious editing and forgive any mortal irreverency.
