    Your son wouldn't happen to be a politician would he?  The title of
    this note..."choices/results"? and your name made me wonder...then I 
    though NO...couldn't be...Is THAT why you would like us to pray for
    him?  Excuse my ignorance...I don't THINK I know your son...or do I?
    Aside from the everyday, ordinary reasons, why does he need us to pray
    for him?

    I would be interested in knowing also.  I don't mean to sound callous,
    but I think that if someone is going to ask folks in 3 conferences to
    pray for their son, they could at least tell those of us not in the
    know why.
    
    thanks,

832.5SOLVIT::MSMITHSo, what does it all mean?Tue Sep 22 1992 13:0013
    So your son and his family has troubles but you don't want to advertise
    them.  Okay, that I can understand.  
    
    However, and not to belittle your situation any, this is a pretty unusual
    request for this notes conference. Usually these sort of prayer requests are
    made in those conferences devoted to discussion on various aspects of
    religion, such as   GOLF::CHRISTIAN, LYCEUM::CATHOLIC-THEOLOGY, and
    LGP30::CHRISTIAN-PERSPECTIVES, to name just a few.
    
    Nevertheless, I wish you and your son and his family well.  Not being a
    praying sort, I'm afraid that is all I can do for you.

    Usually if I am going to pray for someone I have an idea of what I
    am praying for..... but a generic prayer might help your son too.  If your
    asking for help you might consider not being so quick on the trigger.
    Although I can appreciate that your under stress and I wish your son
    well.
