What a quandry

Posted by Acheick on August 13, 2002 at 18:39:45:

I was discussing my sons' visit with relations in the F. recently. We were discussing how they operate and take whatever they can get from people, figuring they are deserving of it since they are "doing God's work." The funny thing is how they always get themselves in a pickle. They on the one hand want to show how God answers their prayers and provides for them, yet on the other hand, they want to tell you of all the things they need so you can give them more and thus, have "God provide for them." Then, they are stuck trying to say how God provides yet at the same time show you how much of a need they have. What a life.

Both my daughter and sons noticed and talked at length about it on separate ocassions. The logic of the f. is missing a few key ingredients.
