the Choose Me God! Polka

Farmer prays for rain.
Builder prays for none.
Each one asks the Lord
to be His chosen one.

    a less trivial take on fans from dueling sports teams all praying for a win. I like it.

    thanks howard. It is funny to think about a God getting involved with the outcome of professional or collegiate sports. He would look like Telly Savalas. (or Jerry Tarkanian!)

    I wasn’t going to get into the local franchises, but since you mentioned it, I’m still pleasantly shocked to see the Phils with a winning record this early in the season. Usually they start off much more slowly.

    But I swear I didn’t offer a single prayer to try to make that happen 😉

    I think people who pay for a lottery win are kinda funny. Don’t they know thousands of others are offering competing requests to the big guy? I pray for naturally occurring weather conditions to prevail so it will not conflict with any other requests.

    Although, I have never won the lottery and have never prayed for such. I am beginning to recognize a correlation.

    However, I do agree with you on the weather prayer thing: “give us this day, our naturally occurring weather patterns, and forgive us our trespasses as we …”
