Does this annoy any one or is it just me

Just wanted to ask fellow Christians on how they feel about emails that get passed around by Christians and at the end of them say pass this along to ten people and see what happens or what ever the rendition is.

It drives me crazy that some Christians are placing faith on the fact that they forwarded the email to X amount of individuals.. I love recieving Christian emails from people.  It is always a great reminder for me as the day goes by on who is control of my very next step I take.  It just annoys me with the placing of faith on superstition.

I am curious to hear from you all. 

Brian once again I thank the Lord for this web site and thank you for maintaining it.

Thanks

Todd

Drives me nuts - I usually enjoy the e-mails until I get to the last line, then I usually end up saying "Oh come on!"

Those emails drive me insane. It seems almost like a chain letter. If I ever send those on, I copy and paste everything else except the Fwd to X amount of people part into a new email and send them.

tgailey,
I totally agree with what you are stating. I receive those emails some times and it does rub me the wrong way. God says to have Faith not follow superstitions. I would really like to see those out there that receive these emails to reply to them and inform everyone that prayer is our communication with God and that is what these emails need to state. Instead of forward this to X amount of people to see what happens, they should state lets all be praying in regards to this and have FAITH that God's will be done.
 
Then afterwards we all need to give Him the praise no matter what the outcome is. Sometimes, what we want the outcome to be is not what NEEDS to be according to God. I have learned that throughout my years of being a Christian and I might not of liked it then but now I thank Him for the way every thing turned out. Believe it or not there is a reason behind it all.
 
Thanks again tgailey for the compliment on the site, it means a lot.
