SCHOOL PRAYER
By: A kid in Arizona

Now I sit 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 could be purple, violet 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 judgment 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.

Its 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.

REFLECTIONS

“Jesus’ Baptism”

Why did Jesus, the sinless one sent from the Father in heaven, submit himself to John’s baptism? John preached a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins (Luke 3:3). In this humble submission we see a foreshadowing of the “baptism” of Jesus bloody death upon the cross. Jesus’ baptism is the acceptance and the beginning of his mission as God’s suffering Servant (Isaiah 52:13-15; 53:1-12). He allowed himself to be numbered among sinners. Jesus submitted himself entirely to his Father’s will. Out of love he consented to this baptism of death for the remission of our sins. Do you know the joy of trust and submission to God?
