Unless the LORD build the house, they labor in vain who build.
Unless the LORD guard the city, in vain does the guard keep watch.

Psalm 127:1

Governor Perry gets it!

If prayer upsets liberals, the media in particular, what does that really say about them?

I think Perry has the right idea, how do we bring a deal like this to Florida?

Be unashamed, Perry and everyone.
What he said could and probably did come almost word for word from the mouth of Washington. The press can go to Hell.

The Response, a non-denominational Christian event initiated by Gov. Perry and joined by cosponsors including the American Family Association (AFA), drew around 30,000 participants to Houston Saturday.

There, the crowd followed a Biblical injunction to “gather together, repent of their sins, and pray to God to intervene on their behalf.”

And that, my friends, is all it was. I and my family participated in The Response at home via GODTV.

I wonder how many disgruntled and disaffected naysayers would there have been if it was a Muslim event?

Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying, "Let us break Their bonds in pieces And cast away Their cords from us." He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; The LORD shall hold them in derision. Then He shall speak to them in His wrath, And distress them in His deep displeasure: ... You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them to pieces like a potter's vessel.' Now therefore, be wise, O kings; Be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, And rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him. Psalm 2:1-12

Things haven't changed much. Fools still say in their hearts there is no God and then do evil because they have communion with the source of goodness; God still says He will destroy fools.

A local news station showed a few protestors outside the stadium, they were citing the usual liberal anti-christian talking points. Separation of church and state, blah blah blah.

I'm still waiting for them to haul their butts up to DC and stand outside the fence at the whitehouse and protest the IFTAR Ramadan dinner being held there.

No ... Gov. Perry is gearing up for a presidential campaign. That's his style... say one thing to get elected, then do another once in office.
