Thank you all for the hilarious comments on my last post. This all reminds me of the competition I ran for the last New Year celebrations: the Lords per minute competition. Actually, it recently occurred to me that I never announced the winner, who will receive a copy of the Pope's new book on Jesus.
I won.

I can certainly sympathize with hearing the word 'just' all the time, but as a counter-balance to all the hilarity maybe I could JUST point out (no pun intended, heh heh) that the word is actually a sign of deference to the Lord: you are afraid to ask Him for more than His will or your spiritual needs demand. So taken as a sign of humility, it's not all that bad.
A good point, Jd!
