BY A 15 yr. Old SCHOOL KID
New Pledge of Allegiance (TOTALLY AWESOME)!
Since the Pledge of Allegiance
And
The Lord's Prayer Are not allowed in most Public schools anymore Because the word 'God' is mentioned.....
A kid in Arizona wrote the attached
NEW School prayer:
Now I sit me down in school Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God. Finds mention of Him very odd.
If scripture now the class recites, It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow. Becomes a Federal matter now.
Our hair can be purple, orange or green, That's no offense; it's a freedom scene..
The law is specific, the law is precise. Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.
For praying in a public hall Might offend someone with no faith at all..
In silence alone we must meditate, God's name is prohibited by the state.
We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks, And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks...
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible. To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen, And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong, We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong..
We can get our condoms and birth controls, Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles..
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed, No word of God must reach this crowd.
It's scary here I must confess, When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make: Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen "

"Yo Mama " a note to parents
If there is one thing I’ve learned from the Ghetto is that children of the ghetto love their family especially their mama. You better not say “You mama” to a child from the ghetto. They will kill you, fight with you. “Don’t talk about my mama” That child’s mother could be a hooker, dead, or in jail. The ghetto rule is, you love your mama and family no matter what. Ghetto children will defend their mama like a wild cat and dog fight.
Just like Joseph who was thrown into the well by his brothers. His family lied, thought he was dead. Yet years later, Joseph forgave his brothers, father and family and God blessed Joseph greatly. It’s like an unwritten rule in the Ghetto you must love your family.
Paradoxically, children who were given everything, opportunities, and loving families, seem to follow this ungrateful whining, complaining world. They are like the children of Israel after they came out of Egypt. Parents pray that God changes their mindset. That Holy Spirit will show them why they were placed in the family God chose for them.
Romans 12:1-3 “Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God”
Let me use my children for example, three boys, one girl. My identical twins as they grew I observed one child would obey while the other rebelled. One played with dolls while the other with robots, same setting different responses, emotions and will.
Now as a parent of adult children, I pray that my children will say, “ Father God Thank you I had a home not an orphanage. Thank you I knew who my mother and father, grand parents and family. Thank you my mother and father are both educated, college graduates, never did drugs, where not in jail and had sound mind. Thank you that they taught me and exposed me to salvation at a very early age. Thank you I lived in some of the best neighborhoods, had some great opportunities to travel to places like New York, Jamaica, Bermuda. Thank you I went to some of the best schools in the US. Thank you that I inherited a healthy body. Thank You I was healthy growing up I had no diseases. Thank you my parents told me they loved me every day. Thank you I had a bath every day and my clothes were always clean. Thank you my parents prayed for me daily."
So, parents pray that your children will be grateful to be alive, grateful for the environment where God placed them to be nurtured and trained for adulthood. Then release them to the might hand of God.
