It's said this was written by a kid in Arizona...

Since the "Pledge of Allegiance" and "The Lords Prayer" are not allowed in most public schools anymore because the word "God" is mentioned...I'm getting it from my church bulletin today!

Now I sit me down in school

Where praying is against the rule

For this great nation under God

Finds mention of Him very odd.

Scriptures now the class recites

It violates the Bill of Rights

And anytime my head I bow

Becomes a Federal matter now.

Our hair can be purple, orange or green

That's no offense; it's a freedom scene

The law is specific, the law is precise

Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.

Now for praying in a public hall

Might offend someone with no faith at all

In silence alone we must meditate

God's name is prohibited by the state.

We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,

And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks...

They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.

To quote the Good Book makes me liable.

We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,

And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.

It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,

We're taught that such 'judgements' do not belong.

We can get our condoms and birth controls

Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles

But the Ten commandments are not allowed,

No word of God must reach the crowd.

It's scary here I must confess

When chaos reigns the school's a mess.

So, Lord, this silent plea I make;

Should I be shot; my soul please take! Amen

In this current generation one would think man is the creator and God the created but we all know it's the other way around. Then there are those who figure they can get rid of God and that also is the other way around. The creator doesn't need the created help or opinions to do His work. We know nothing and God knows everything. Man has gained the wisdom from God and was successful in walking on the moon's surface. Doctors have been given the knowledge to operate on human hearts and in some cases extend lives.

Only Jesus has raised the dead, died on the cross and rose again to be at the right hand of God the Father. God is in charge.Why man is set on taking God out the picture is beyond me! We all have beliefs good or not in how we would like to see the world as we know it however God is in charge and always got the last word. I'm so glad I got to know right from wrong and have Jesus in my heart to treat people right and believe in prayer!

I'm glad to have joined this stroke support group where members call for prayers faithfully as survivors, care givers and family members alike. I feel when we give our aches, pains and concerns to God He gives us relief and our suffering is made so much more tolerable to endure.
