One pastor’s wife told me recently, “I hate to have prayer with John.  He begins right away to beseech the Almighty to reveal to me my sins:  ‘Lord, help Susan with her laziness.  Reveal to her how she can be more organized.  Create in her a spirit of submissiveness so she can be the godly woman you want her to be.  Protect her, Lord, from the evil influences of television and the covetousness that stalks her in the mall.’” - Louis McBurney
