A Fervent Prayer

prayingIn church last Sunday, I heard a sweet elderly lady in the pew next to me saying a prayer. It was so innocent and sincere that I just had to share it with you:

 ” Dear Lord:

The last four to five years have been very tough.

You have taken my favorite actor – Paul Newman;

my favorite actress – Elizabeth Taylor;

my favorite singer – Whitney Houston,

and now my favorite author -Tom Clancy.

I just wanted you to know that my favorite politicians are –

Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.

Amen”
