Nothing enrages me more than the injustice of the abuse of power. Corrupt governments seizing farm lands to fill the pockets of the already-wealthy; a supervisor sexually harassing a direct report; or, lately, an unremorseful man who made millions - oh, wait, billions - in an elaborate ponzi scheme, whose choices are wreaking havoc on non-profits. Bernie Madoff has bankrupted so many, and he and his wife apparently sold their remorse in exchange for a double-portion of greed.

Vain Imaginations
By Sue Bohlin - Posted on February 3rd, 2009
Not long ago, I attended a retreat at which a college student, freshly discovering his call to an intercessory prayer ministry, spent hours every night praying by name for everyone on the retreat. The last morning when I ran into him, he said, "Sue! As I was praying for you, I received a word from the Lord for you."
Uh-oh. I'd heard this before. And every time I had taken it to the Lord, asking if there were anything to it, the answer was no.
