Your average village idiot
should have figured out
that this stuff wasn’t going to be easy
when introduced to the concept of a
Sacrifice of Praise.

Granted we’re the King’s Kids, but
does that obligate us to act like spoiled brats
every time we don’t get our way?

Jesus didn’t get a rose garden either.
He got Gethsemane.

What have we done to deserve any better?
