cute prayer anecdote

From Dallas Willard, The Divine Conspiracy;

The story is told of a man who lost his composure and cursed in the presence of his pastor. After an embarrassed silence, he looked sheepishly at the pastor and said, "Oh, it's all right, pastor. I cuss a little and you pray a little, but neither one of us means anything by it."

The challenge to our faith in the Kingdom is to mean something by our talk of it.
