Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin is calling on Oklahomans to pray for rain. Texas Governor Rick Perry asked Texans to pray for rain all the way back in April, but those prayers have not been answered. In fact, the drought in Texas is far worse than when Perry called for prayers.
I'm all for prayer, but I don't think God cares for insincere praying. I think God expects humility when we pray and intends for us to repent and turn away from the sins that are producing the crisis of climate change.
Oklahoma politicians lead the nation in rejecting the command that we be intelligent and faithful stewards of God's creation. Until our leaders acquire a humble and contrite heart, I fear we are going to continue to reap what we've sown.
