Lily came out of her room one day a couple of weeks ago, after a time of prayer, and gave me this letter. "I want to give it to the editor of a newspaper." Well, we haven't sent it to a newspaper yet, but I have to tell you, I LOVE my girl's heart.
Dear Editor,
My name is Lily. I’m ten years old, and adopted from China. I’ve noticed that a lot of people think that dogs are more important than humans. Dogs are cute and all, but God didn’t make them in His own image, like humans. People are starving, while dogs eat from pink plastic dishes. People are shivering in rags, while dogs sport diamond collars, camouflage shirts, pink fluffy tutu’s, and outfits for every holiday. Children are begging in the streets, while dogs sleep on plush cushions. I own two dogs, and I’m not saying that they are bad or anything, I’m just saying that people are more important!
In Christ,
Lily Wei Le*
Genesis 1:27
So God created man in His own image;
He created them male and female.
