Worth reading......
From my dee-jay.
I got the COOLEST thing in the mail today. I don't see how I could have forgotten to mention it before.
PRAYER RUG!
Ok, so the envelope itself was enough to get me excited.
Front: TWO HOMES ARE ABOUT TO BE BLESSED... THEN IT MUST GO TO ANOTHER DEAR FRIEND
YOURS FIRST!
Back: DEAR JESUS,
WE PRAY THAT YOU WILL BLESS SOMEONE IN THIS HOME SPIRITUALLY, PHYSICALLY & FINANCIALLY. AND PLEASE DEAR LORD, BLESS THE ONE WHO'S HANDS OPEN THIS LETTER. MAKE GOOD CHANGES IN THIS ONE'S LIFE AND GIVE THEM THE DESIRES OF THEIR HEART. WE PRAY OVER AND BLESS THIS LETTER IN YOUR HOLY NAME. AMEN
Of course, I opened it right away. Yes my friends, that means my hands are now blessed! What now?
Well, upon opening it, I was even more pleased.
The main letter thing has a lot of random crap not worth reading. But in the middle of the page it says: "GOD'S HOLY BLESSING POWER IS IN THE ENCLOSED ANOINTED PRAYER RUG WE ARE LOANING YOU TO USE!!!"
Say what?
And then I looked at the other stuff in the envelope. PRAYER RUG!
It's this huge (10"x16" or something) piece of paper. Jesus' face is on it. He's wearing his crown of thorns, and is crying with his eyes closed. Underneath it says:
Look into Jesus' Eyes you will see they are closed. But as you continue to look yo will see His eyes opening and looking back into your eyes. Then go and be alone and kneel on this Rug of Faith or touch it to both knees. Then please check your needs on our letter to you. Please return this Prayer Rug. Do not keep it.
On the back of the "rug" it says:
"This Prayer Rug is Soaked with the Power of Prayer for you. Use it immediately, then please return it with your Prayer needs Checked on our letter to you." It must be mailed to a second home that needs a blessing after you use it. Prayer works. Expect God's blessing.
I like how they capitalize random things, and the random quotation marks are a nice touch.
Hmmm. Random stuff from the letter:
You, or someone connected with this address, and another dear family are about to be blessed through this unusual, Buble Faith, Church, Prayer Rug, which we are placing in your care for these next 24 important hours.
...
These next 24 important hours are crucial to you. Timing is important to God. After you kneel on this Church Prayer Rug, or place it over your knees, place it in a Bibel, on Philippians 4:19. (If you don't have a Bible, it's okay - just slide it under your side of your bed, for tonight, if you can. If you can't do this, it is okay.) Leave It There No Longer Than Tonight Only! God sees.
...
Please, do not break this flow of power between us.
On the back of the letter thing, there's a "Prayer needs" checklist. The areas listed for you to check are as follows:
Pray for my family and me for...
My Soul
A Closer Walk With Jesus
My Health
A Family Member's Health
Confusion In My Home
My Children
To Stop A Bad Habit
A Better Job
A Home To Call My Own
A New Car
A Money Blessing
I Want to be Saved.
Pray for God to bless me with this amount of money: $______
Please, especially pray for this person:_____________________
Also pray for (please print)__________________
Enclosed is my seed gift to God's work of $_________.
So, wait....pray for confusion in your home?....riiiiight.
At the bottomish area of the page: BE SURE TO RETURN THIS PRAYER PAGE WITH THE RUG. IT IS IMPORTANT TO YOU TO DO SO. - THE CHURCH WILL PAY THE POSTAGE FOR YOU. AND, YOU WILL RECEIVE A WONDERFUL, FREE, SPIRITUAL GIFT THAT WILL BE A BLESSING TO YOU FOR A LIFETIME, AS SOON AS WE RECEIVE THIS BACK FROM YOU.
Maaaan. The promise of that spiritual gift is almost enough for me to want to send it in.
Also enclosed is a sheet with really old pictures of these two women (looks like they were taken in the '70s or something) and has a bunch of quotes from people. CALIFORNIA - "...The Lord has HEALED MY THROAT..." A.R.F
So now I'm forced to decide whether or not I'll keep it. I really want to. Maybe I'll write a letter to the people, and tell them about how much I need the rug for myself, and talk about how I'm surrounded by sin.
Think it'd be a sin to go to Kinko's or something and make copies of the Prayer Rug? Hmmmm.
Religious chain mail schemes are FUN!
