Preach it Rico. Preach it.
I think people who pray trouble into folks lives need a good swift kick of the same trouble they're praying about... maybe it'll knock some sense into them. (TIC)
Seriously... what's wrong with "God... show them just how much you love them! Woo them with your love"? Why do we have to ask him to do bad things to them? That's just dumb...
I know a preacher who says his mom used to pray that bad stuff on him. "God if he ever backslides, break his leg, God! Hurt him!"
That's stupid.
