With one day to go before his Houston prayer rally, Texas Gov. Rick Perry dropped hints about his potential presidential bid, telling Christian Broadcast Network that God will have a hand in his presidential decision.
"I have no idea what God's plans are for me but I'm gonna try to be as faithful to him as I can be. I know I will fail as I have often but the good news is we have a forgiving God and I try to follow His directions," Perry said in an interview. "God's got a great sense of humor, I know that as well so anyway, whatever He has in store for me I look forward to it."
He also said he prays every day for President Barack Obama, that "God will open his eyes."
As for The Response, Perry said he is simply following Biblical instructions to ask for "God's grace for this country, for this nation."
Perry, a Methodist who attends a nondenominational church in Austin, is clearly comfortable talking about his faith, a quality that has boosted his appeal with conservative evangelicals.

Why on Earth would we not pray - openly or hidden in a closet?
We are dust and the Lord is All Knowing.
Perry has all the makings of a president. Shame he’s not into closing the border as it makes him another globalist.
