Gustav, Answer to a Prayer?

Focus on Your Family asked devoted followers to pray for rain during Obama’s acceptance speech. Obama had a beautiful night, however the mass prayer did not go unanswered. Any death or destruction caused by Gustav should be laid at Focus on Your Family’s feet.

Like the old Rolling Stone’s song about not getting what you want but sometimes getting what you need. The pompous self-righteous right acts if God is in there exclusive corner, and as most if not all are Christian, many have the self-same condemnation that cause the death of their founder. They are blissfully blind to the concept that FOYF does unto others as was done unto their founder.

To pray for safety, life, or salvation of someone is one thing, but to pray against someone – who claims to be a Christian also – is a whole ‘nother thing. However, it is typical of the self-righteous right.

Had it rained on Obama’s night, FOYF would have claimed ownership of the weather event as proof that they are the ultimate name dropper, and can flex their connection whenever they decide to execute a mass prayer.

However the rain did not come or did not come when they intended and they equivocate that it was all a joke or misunderstanding and that Gustav is not the answer to their prayer – even though it will wash clean a city most FOYF believe is wicked, sinful and deserves the retribution it is receiving from Gustav.

So, maybe the prayer didn’t go unanswered after all. It didn’t shut down Obama, but it did shut down New Orleans from it sinful ways. Thank you, FOYF, a force to be reckon with, who can bring down lighting bolts from on high, although their aim is a bit off. Their spin doctors will make it sound as if they intended this all along.

Pray God protect us from the self-righteous.
