One of the most important, inspirational books I have ever read is Napolean Hill's
"Think and Grow Rich".
Though it may not seem to be a book dedicated to creating a healthy lifestyle,
following the principles of this book will lead you to a healthy lifestyle. I highly recommend it! The Health and Fitness
Journal I have published is based upon these principles.
I recently received this prayer from a member.
I so agree with it, therefore would like to share with you.
Please pass to others.
This incredible prayer
was given in Kansas at
the opening session of their Senate. When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open
the
new session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities,
but this is what they heard:
Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask
your forgiveness and to seek your direction and
guidance. We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those
who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we
have
done.
We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.
We have exploited the poor and
called it the lottery.
We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare..
We have killed our unborn
and called it choice.
We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.
We have neglected to discipline
our children and called it building self esteem....
We have abused power and called it politics.
We
have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.
We have polluted the air with profanity and
pornography and called it freedom of expression.
We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers
and called it enlightenment.
Search us, Oh, God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set
us free.
Amen!
