This is a rough post.....from 2022. I store it in my humor posts but I hope it might bring a tear more than anything else.
A Lord's Day brunch prayer....before the big game
Lord Jesus
As you know....for this blessing is from you....
our son Kyle has a full football scholarship....
at an SEC school....GO DOGS!
and you have also blessed us with a beautiful daughter....
whose wedding is planned for next year....
and we need every minute of this year to prepare for it....
so yes Lord Jesus....come....just not right now.
I know that America has strayed far from you...
but that's really the Democrats Lord...
I was just talking to the pastor the other day...
at the pot luck after the service....before the game
and he says that we are going to get the House back....
and then we are going to throw Hunter Biden in Jail...
They're making us wear masks Lord....
just like they put a crown of thorns on your head!
our wonderful freedoms are being taken away....
bless Donald Trump Lord....and Ron DeSantis....
and Matt Gaetz...and Marjorie Taylor....I can't remember her last name....
and the My Pillow Guy.
May I ask one more thing Lord....
when you do come....
can you call first...and leave a message
to see if we are home....
what with Bible studies and pickle ball and all
a grandkid on the way....
it's going to be a busy decade or so.
So all praise to you Lord....
Come Lord Jesus....
With all your mighty angels....
In Power and glory....
And righteous judgment....(on the Democrats)....
Just not right now.
Just one last very personal request Lord...
just in case Billy Graham was right
and you are indeed coming real soon....
could you possibly schedule the rapture....
in early April.....
(just after March Madness if possible)
so I don't have to break my back...
unnecessarily spreading all that mulch....
and fertilizer?
(I missed the first week of this year's....
church golf league because of it....
and couldn't bend over to putt)
