PANHANDLE, TX — Though glad to know from Scripture that the prayers of a righteous man availeth much, local man Josh Peterson wondered what exactly the prayers of a not-that-righteous man like himself availeth.
While happy for whoever out there might have really effective prayers, Peterson was curious what availeth from the prayers of a self-absorbed numskull who just yelled at his kids.
"What about a below-average righteousness sort of guy, someone who keeps screwing up royally? How do those prayers shake out?" asked Peterson. "Do they still availeth a little? Just a smidge?"
Peterson felt rather sure that the prayers of his grandmother would avail quite a bit, but his own were rather questionable. "Grandma has it on lockdown. She's got the straight connection, I'm sure of it," mused Peterson. "Those prayers are availing out the wazoo. I don't know what mine are doing, though. Maybe I'll ask my pastor."
At publishing time, Peterson's pastor had gently informed Peterson that all prayer depends on the righteousness of Christ, which, thankfully, availeth more than can be thought or imagined.
