This is from a song by Casting Crowns:

What if the armies of the Lord
Picked up and dusted of their swords,
Vowed to set the captives free,
And not let Satan have one more?

What if the church for Heaven's sake
Finally stepped up to the plate.
Took a stand upon God's promise,
And stormed Hell's rusty gates!

What if the light that we pursue
Came from a hunger for the truth
What if the family turned to Jesus,
Stopped asking Oprah what to do?

And what would happen if we prayed,
For those raised up to lead the way
Then maybe kids in school could pray,
And have more children see light of day.

What if his people prayed,
And those who bear his name
Would only seek his face
And turn from their own way

He said that he would hear,
His promise has been made,
He'll answer loud and clear
If we'd only pray.

If ya'll would, please be in prayer for my friend Deanne. She was attacked by her dog last week; she put her hand up in an attempt to shield her face and the dog bit through her hand and through her upper lip. Her upper row of teeth is messed up and her hand is temporarily paralyzed. *tear.*

Whoa, hectic with the dog attack thing.

My online ediquette (or lack there of) has been sketch for a while, things have been crazy with school.

Your writing is terriffic. Keep up the good work. Hope that hand heals up!

Yea! The silent one has spoken! Thanks for the concern for my friend. Hmmm, your picture reminds me of my dentist, Dr. Polk. Ha Ha Ha! He's very young and has bright red hair. Did you ever wish you didn't have red hair?
