......they have rejected Me
from being king over them.....
[1 Samuel 8:7]
*************************
"Lord, I didn't know You
wanted to be king....."
"Child, I AM King."
"But, Lord, America doesn't
have a king;
well, not a political king.
When I was a kid,
Elvis was king."
"I understand, child."
"Hey, Lord? Are You
Democrat or a
Republican? I
always wanted to know."
"Neither, child.
I am your Lord."
"That's okay, Lord.
You probably don't
want to take sides.
I understand."
"Read My Word, child."
"Why? There's nothing
about America, in here!
How come, Lord?
How come?"
"Everything is in
There, child.
You only have to look."
"Where? I don't see it."
"Have you finished reading
Matthew, child?"
"Nope. Sorry, Lord;
there's too much in
there, I don't
understand,
like the part about
the wineskins:
if wine was inside
a bag, wouldn't it
just pour out, Lord?"
"No."
"I disagree, Lord,
but I'll take Your
Word for it."
"Thank you, My precious."
"I still don't get the
part about the unshrunk
cloth. And, I've read
it, over and over, Lord."
"Read it again, My child."
"Lord, they didn't even
have dryers in those
days; so why are You
talking about shrunk
cloth, anyway?
I don't......."
"Child, are you
returning to your
Bible study?"
"Yeah, Lord!
As long as I can
get off Wednesdays;
You know that."
[NOD.]
"But, I feel funny
about asking these
particular
questions in there.
I don't want to
look stupid."
[RUMBLE.]
"Okay! Okay!
I'll go, and I'll
ask! Who cares
if I look stupid?
I've been doing it,
for a half century;
why should I stop,
now?"
[NOD.]
"Anyway, You
can tell me, Lord:
You're really a
Democrat, aren't
You? Come on;
You can tell ME!"
[SMILE.]
"Read to Me, child."
"Okay, Lord,
here goes......."
**********************
....the disciples of John
came to Him, saying
'Why do we and
Pharisees fast, but
Your disciples do not fast?'
And, Jesus said to them
'Can the wedding guests
mourn as long as the
bridegroom is with them?
[Matthew 9:14-15]
