Impy's father had a bad accident while I taunted him [opposite of vanity]

Posted on 03/28/2016 12:52:10 AM PDT by Arthur Wildfire! March

While caught up in this Trump/Cruz war of words this weekend, impy and I were ripping up each other verbally when he privately admitted that he was not himself.

He was more testy than normal because his father had a terrible accident which destroyed one of his eyes. The eye risks infection and will need to be removed Thursday.

This Easter weekend was bad enough.

But with someone you care about being seriously injured at the same time?

Please pray for Impy's father and make a quick prayer for impy as well.

At the same time, we need to keep reminding ourselves -- that person you're debating is a human being. And not just any person either, but someone who cares deeply about the USA.

But I confess, I'm getting more polarized by the day every time someone taunts me or someone who I agree with. It will continue to stay ugly.

But I hope that all of us can at least unplug from this now and then, pray for each other, and sometimes even thank our loyal opposition for being a good person.

It’s an informal prayer request.

I feel kind of like a hypocrite because I don’t post much on prayer threads.

An informal prayer request and hopefully we can remember that the person we are arguing with is a human being.

There’s no requirement for posting prayer threads.

Don’t feel bad if you don’t.

There are plenty I don’t post on but I still pray for and I’ll bet there are plenty of others who do the same.

Prayers up for healing of that eye and complete restoration of sight.

Please pray for impy's father.

Will do. And a tip of the hat to you for posting this. Your comment about the "loyal opposition" is wise indeed.

Prayers up!
None of us is perfect!
Just pray that God will accept flawed people such as we are!
God bless!

I pray Lord that you heal imp’s father because by your stripes we are healed. I pray for healing of the eye and no infection.

I too may have been over-the-top with my postings but it’s just so frustrating to see the candidate we support attacked with the same tactics used by liberals, the politics of personal destruction. None of us are prefect, including the candidates for President of this great country.
