Dear Sister Dolli:
A distraught 11 year old boy came to me crying after Sunday School this past week. Naturally, I lent an ear - but his problem is one that is likely best suited for you and your special gift of helping our children. In a nutshell, here is what he lamented:
Both his parents (who do NOT attend church, by the way, they just send him on the church bus) are practicing democrats. They both voted for Hillary Clinton in the last election and intend to support the democrat candidate again this year. They are also members of a group determined to retake the senate by doing all they can to canvass for the democrat candidates in each state where that election is up for grabs.
Here's the saddest part. They young man said, "God answers prayer. I know this. But what about the prayers of democrats? It doesn't say that He won't answer the prayers of democrats. What if a democrat prays for another democrat to win?" I tried explaining that democrats are sinners and that God doesn't hear the prayers of the unrighteous. I don't think I got through to him. His name is Jedediah and he's a precious soul in the eyes of our Lord. He tithes from his school lunch money!

“The horse is prepared against the day of battell: but safetie is of the Lord.”
Lord, may I serve my equine brothers and sisters just as I do my fellow man. Amen and Amen
