Thanks, I accept that you don't. Sorry if it came off preachy, I really was just trying to give a rationale for the situation that was described, thanking God for a crucifix that was not destroyed, and probably got long winded, but at least it wasn't JR long winded!

Just to be clear I was saying it is silly of the media to think people prayed that way. I am not a praying man but if I was it would be that god would give me the strenght to make it through events like the tornado not to spare me from tornadoes/ bad events.

I guess the best story to tell non-believers about god's will is this one(it is simply and to the point once you guys start citing the bible and all the versus most non-believers just turn you off; my two cents):

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed
he was walking along the beach with the LORD.

Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene he noticed two sets of
footprints in the sand: one belonging
to him, and the other to the LORD.


When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.

He noticed that many times along the path of
his life there was only one set of footprints.


He also noticed that it happened at the very
lowest and saddest times in his life.

This really bothered him and he
questioned the LORD about it:

"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow
you, you'd walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome times in my life,
there is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why when
I needed you most you would leave me."


The LORD replied:

"My son, my precious child,
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."


See

That is a very good poem. As to citing the verses, I just didn't want anyone coming back saying I was pulling it out my backend.

and I agree with you about how the media portrays things.

Re: Pics For Sharing & Debating

See citing the versus is a waste because for all I know you could be making up the versus. I don't even know how to look up a versus that is why the above poem is at least for me more powerful when you describe your faith. If you throw the bible at people they are going to run away.
