<snip> On a similar vein (including the tongue firmly implanted in the cheek) a colleague of mine gets very frustrated to hear people say, "An don't forget to pray for clear weather for the church camp this weekend." Assuming that God grants these sort of requests (and also assuming they've been good enough to earn God's favor ;-]), then you've got to ask what sort of person prays for 'no rain' in a drought affected nation. (Just between you and me ;-], I suspect the real angst over this issue is because the colleague in question lives in the Healseville area, relies on tank water for their home and has a lot of camp sites in the area (with one church group of another in at least one of these sites each weekend) and he struggles to keep the tanks watered. ;-]) ;-] ;-] ;-] Rodd ------------------------------------------------------ - You are subscribed to the mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put in the message body 'unsubscribe insights-l' (ell, not one (1)) See: http://nsw.uca.org.au/insights-l-information.htm ------------------------------------------------------
