T H E D E V I L ' S BLESSED

If the Devil were to write his Blesseds, they would probably go something like this:

* Blessed are those who are too tired, too busy, too distracted to spend an hour once a week in Church ~ they are my best workers.

* Blessed are those who wait to be asked and expect to be thanked ~ I can use them.

* Blessed are the touchy, with a bit of luck they may stop going to church ~ they are my missionaries.

* Blessed are those who are very religious but get on everyone's nerves ~ they are mine forever.

*Blessed are the troublemakers ~ they shall be called my children.

* Blessed are those who have no time to pray ~ they are easy prey for me.

* Blessed are the gossipers ~ for they are my secret agents.

* Blessed are those critical of Church leadership ~ for they shall inherit a place with me in my fate.

* Blessed are the complainers ~ I'm all ears for them.

* Blessed are you when you read this and think it is about other people and not yourself ~ I've got you.
