As mentioned in an earlier blog, Texas is experiencing one of the worst droughts in years. I often write letters to our local paper and am usually published. I don't make a habit of it, just commenting on some outrageous thoughts of others, usually.
A year ago I published a request for people to pray for rain. It was published, but then promptly ridiculed by a few. Big deal. This year, I wrote again, asking those who believe to call upon their pastors and leaders to pray for rain within their houses of worship. I also elicited a response from non-believers, asking them to express their concern in whatever manner they thought best.
Didn't get published this time....perhaps I stepped over the line by mentioning the distinction between believers and non. Whatever the reason, I will fuss at the editors anyway. What's the matter with a simple request for prayer when in critical need? Not politically correct, I suppose. It's sad that this country has come to this point when believers have to be whacked across the knuckles for expressing their beliefs. But what the newspaper doesn't realize is that God is not dependent upon their little paper to act upon the prayers of those who love Him.
