Maybe It’s Better Up in the Mountains
Monday 11.24.08“Mama, maybe we should do a prairie quest.”
“Pardon?”
“You know, a prairie quest. It’s for things like owies, and sickness . . . ” (numbering off on his fingers)
“You mean a prayer request?”
“No, a prairie quest. Like at school! It’s for things like owies, and sickness . . .” (again, with the numbering).
“Oh, have you given a prairie quest?”
“Yes, for my cough.”
“And what happened?”
“It didn’t work. I still cough. But I can still give it again some other time!”
That’s really cute!
Ha! That is awesome. It’s funny the things we church kids pick up. For years I thought there were 2 words to close a prayer: Amen and Allmen.
