'Twas the Month Before Christmas

*Twas the month before Christmas*
*When all through our land,*
*Not a Christian was praying*
*Nor taking a stand.*
*See the PC Police had taken away,*
*The reason for Christmas - no one could say.*
*The children were told by their schools not to sing,*
*About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.*
*It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say*
* December 25th is just a 'Holiday.'*
*Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit*
*Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!*
*CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an i-pod*
*Something was changing, something quite odd! *
*Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanza*
*In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.*
*As Targets were hanging their trees upside down*
* At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.
*At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears*
*You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears .*
*Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty*
*Are words that were used to intimidate me.*
*Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen*
*On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton!*
*At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter*
*To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.*
*And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith*
* Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace*
*The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded*
*The reason for the season, stopped before it started.*
*So as you celebrate 'Winter Break' under your 'Dream Tree'*
*Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.*
*Choose your words carefully, choose what you say*

*Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS ,
not Happy Holiday*

Please, all Christians join together and wish everyone you meet MERRY CHRISTMAS Christ is "The Reason" for the Christmas Season!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

&

GOD BLESS

I needed to use intercessors in the daily decision process for my business... No major decisions are made without prayerful review with my intercessory team.

While I totally agree with intercessory prayer for business, I am a bit confused as to whether the author uses a prayer team for only 'major decisions' or if he uses them in the 'daily decision making process'.

If you use someone daily to pray for business decisions you get into a legal/spiritual catch 22 situation. Using them daily for business decisions by law makes them employees of your business and thus by law they must be compensated. But if you are paying them it ceases to be Spirit lead intercession and instead becomes prayer for hire.
