RACHEL: Mom, can we watch a movie? (This request made at least a dozen times a day.)
ME: I tell you what - If you clean up all of your Polly Pocket things, I'll let you watch a short one.
RACHEL: Yea!! (jumping up and down and heading toward the living room)
ME: Not so fast! Remember it's Zekers' turn to pick the movie this time.
RACHEL: OK, Mom!
ME: Where are you going?
RACHEL: To tell Zekers which movie he wants to watch!

sounds like me
As soon as I read this I chuckled. Then it hit me....isn't this the way we respond to God quite often....telling HIM what he's going to do for us. Oh, but we *disguise* it as prayer. Don't know why, but Rachel's line just made me draw that comparison.
Your blogs always encourage me....thanks so much for ALL that you are doing for God's glory!
That's true .. . . I'm really good at figuring out ways for God to solve all of my problems. Why doesn't He ever ask for my advice?? :-)
So how does Miss Rachel fit in with her mom's patterns as a young thing? You know...Betty Webbertz, give me a drop of your blood, swear life time allegiance, and all that jazz? mm
