In today's mail: "Dear Someone Connected with This Address.....GOD'S HOLY BLESSING IS IN THE ENCLOSED ANOINTED PRAYER RUG WE ARE LOANING YOU TO USE!!!....You, or someone connected with this address, and another dear family are about to be blessed through this unusual, Bible Faith, Church, Prayer Rug (sic), which we are placing in your care for these next 24 important hours. WE FEEL THAT SOMETHING VERY WONDERFUL IS TRYING TO COME TO YOU. Go into a room where you can be alone (just God and you). Turn off the television or radio and try to be by yourself when you kneel on this Holy Ghost, Bible Prayer Rug, or spread it over Your Knees. We want this Church Ministry, Prayer Rug to be touching both of your knees.
...Then in the morning it is a must that you get this unusual blessing Church Prayer Rug out of this house and back to us, here at the church's chapel prayer room, in faith. You must get this Bible Prayer Rug back to us so we can rush it to another family that's in need of blessing. Do this without fail. Please, do not break this flowing of power between us....These next 24 important hours are crucial to you. Timing is important to God...slide it under your side of your bed for tonight. Leave It There No Longer Than Tonight Only! God sees.
...Notice the face of Jesus on this Church Prayer Rug. When you first look you will notice that His eyes are closed. If you relax and continue looking straight into His eyes, you will see His eyes slowly opening and he will begin looking back at you. Jesus sees your needs.
....SAINT MATTHEW'S CHURCH MUST HAVE THIS PRAYER RUG BACK. PLEASE DO NOT MISPLACE IT. IT MUST GO TO ANOTHER HOME AFTER YOU USE IT."
And there's a postage paid envelope, too. I can't figure out their game. There is a small line where you check off your needs ("A New Car....A Closer Walk With Jesus....Confusion in My Home," etc.) that suggests a seed gift to God's work, but nowhere else does it suggest a donation. It also doesn't ask for my name or address. They just want the "rug" back. The Bible Faith Church Prayer Rug is a piece of paper, and it doesn't look like anyone's put both their knees on it, so I don't think I'm getting a used prayer rug. I'm not sure what to do. Part of me just doesn't feel right putting the Holy Spirit Bible Prayer Rug in the recycling bin. And I certainly wouldn't want to break the flowing of power between St. Matthew's and Someone Connected with This Address. What to do, what to do.....
Remember..."Timing is important to God." (OK, God, not that I'm telling you what to do, but it might be about Time to resolve that whole Middle East thing.....)
