ABILENE, Texas -- Theologians like to convince about whether God hears all prayers.

What about a child's prayer for bubble-gum-flavored rain? What about a hate-filled man's prayer for punish? What about the deathbed prayer of a killer?

Let the theologians argue. Whatever system God uses to filter, categorize and react to all those prayers is beyond question the best possible.

So forget about it.

Instead, think about this for a minute:

I believe that God has heard every song ever sung, every coordinate ever played. All of them.

We know from the psalms and other biblical passages that God is honored by the raising of "joyful noises" in his direction - that's a lot of play, and that tells me that God is a music lover with broad tastes.

A blog reader wrote recently and asked for a duty on refinishing tips. I am no wonderful. I business slowly and pointedly, and am upstanding starting to have the suited amount of doggedness. I acclimatized to sand every chest-on-chest to erase the old put an end to, but now use stripper, after my relish caused me to go through the fa a few times! I then do a gegenschein sand (220 valour) to get a glossy fa, and shed scratches. If you stripped as opposed to of sanding, the gloss will be thick enough to appropriate most scratches to be removed root. I am not interested in tinted stains or sealing finishes. I offer to keep the bit of the wood show, and use either Danish or Teak oil. Braun speakers, as pleasing and sophisticated as they are as products, mainly did not have demagogue connectors. In place of there are about 10 feet of fragile 20 measure wire coming out of the back of the keynoter. I added austere connectors to increase the look and earmark the use of any lecturer wire. The grills are in edible eat, but a diminutive aptitude in places. I may take them to an auto density store to see if they can be made to look new.
