Satan's Beatitudes

If the Devil, whom we don't hear much about today, were to write his Beatitudes, they would possibly go something like this:

"Blessed are those who are too tired, too busy, too distracted to spend an hour once a week with their fellow Christians in Church--they are my best workers.

Blessed are those Christians 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 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."
