SENT TO ME BY A FRIEND...

Billy Graham's daughter was interviewed on the
Early Show and Jane Clayson asked her "How could
God let something like this Happen?" (regarding Katrina)
Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and
insightful response.
She said, "I believe God is deeply saddened by this,
just as we are, but for years we've been telling God to
get out of our schools, to get out of our government and
to get out of our lives.
And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly
backed out.
How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His
protection if we demand He leave us alone?"
In light of recent events...terrorists attack, school shootings,
etc. I think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare
(she was murdered, her body found recently)
complained she didn't want prayer in our schools,
and we said OK.
Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school.
The Bible says thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal,
and love your neighbor as yourself.
And we said OK. Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we
shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave because
their little personalities would be warped and we might
damage their self-esteem
(Dr. Spock's son committed suicide).
We said an expert should know what he's talking about.
And we said OK. Now we're asking ourselves why our
children have no conscience, why they don't know right
from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill
strangers, their classmates, and themselves.
Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough,
we can figure it out.
I think it has a great deal to do with
"WE REAP WHAT WE SOW."
Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then
wonder why the world's going to hell.
Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but
question what the Bible says Funny how you can send
'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire but
when you start sending messages regarding the Lord,
people think twice about sharing.
Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass
freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of
God is suppressed in the school and workplace.
Are you laughing? Funny how when you forward this
message, you will not send it to many on your address list
because you're not sure what they believe, or what they
WILL think of you for sending it.
Funny how we can be more worried about what other
people think of us than what God thinks of us.
Pass it on if you think it has merit.
If not then just discard it... no one will know you did.
But, if you discard this thought process, don't sit back
and complain about what bad shape the world is in.
"Good friends are like stars.........
You don't always see them, but you know they are
always there


I AM PASSING IT ON TO ALL OF YOU
