Friends,
You may recall that the mockers and scorners cast doubt and aspersion on Texas Governor Rick Perry's call for state residents to pray for rain to alleviate the drought the state had been experiencing for many months. Some of these mockers even went so far as to credit an atheist convention held in Houston last October for a small shower at the time.
Well, my brother-in-law from Lubbock called me up earlier in the week to inform me that God has answered the call of Texas Prayer Warriors and that the state is now experiencing relief from the drought after heavy weekend rainfalls.
Let's see how the God-deniers try to spin this one to deny yet further proof of the power of prayer.

LUBBOCK (March 22, 2012)—The recent rainfall across much of Texas has pulled more than 10 percent of the state out of drought status for the first time in more than a year including parts of Central Texas.
The U.S. Drought Monitor map released Thursday shows 10.1 percent of the state with no drought, up from 6.98 percent last week. The last time Texas had this much land in the drought-free stage was in February 2011, when 12.5 percent of the state showed no drought.
Less of the state is in the worst drought stage.
This week, 17.9 percent is in exceptional status, down from 20.5 percent.
