If God Should Go On Strike

have gone to war. And for all of those that will be going there soon.
May God watch over them, protect them and keep them safe. May God be
with the families and friends and comfort them. May God bless all of
you and keep you safe and well.
God Please
Grant them courage,
When times seem bleak.
Grant them strength,
When they feel weak.
Grant them comfort,
When they feel all alone,
And most of all, God,
Please bring them all home.
If God Should Go On Strike
How good it is that God above has never gone on strike
Because He was not treated fair in things He didn't like.
If only once He'd given up and said, "That's it, I'm through,
I've had enough of thee on earth, so this is what I'll do.
I'll give my orders to the sun, cut off the heat supply,
And to the moon give no more light and run the oceans dry.
Then just to make things really tough and put the pressure on,
Turn off the vital oxygen till every breath is gone."
You know that He would be justified, if fairness were the game.
For no one has been more abused or met with more disdain
Than God, and yet He carries on, supplying you and me
With all the favours of His grace, and everything for free.
Men say they want a better deal, and so on strike they go,
But what a deal we've given God to whom all things we owe.
We don't care who we hurt to gain the things we like,
But what a mess we'd all be in if God should go on strike.

Jose
When young Jose, newly arrived in the United States, made his first
trip to Yankee Stadium, there were no tickets left for sale. Touched
by his disappointment, a friendly ticket salesman found him a perch
near the American flag. Later, Jose wrote home enthusiastically
about his experience.
"And the Americans, they are so friendly!" he concluded. "Before the
game started, they all stood up and looked at me and sang,
'Jose, can you see?'"
