Some pointers to other peoples' thoughts (or should it be "other people's thoughts"?)

I mentioned a few weeks ago finding out about the Denison Forum - I really liked today's post:
https://www.denisonforum.org/columns/cultural-commentary/stranded-cows-and-bruce-springsteen/
and especially this quote:
When a newspaper posed the question, “What’s wrong with the world?”, the Catholic thinker G. K. Chesterton reputedly replied: “Dear Sirs: I am. Sincerely Yours, G. K. Chesterton.”

I found this post this morning:
http://www.challies.com/articles/how-to-pray-for-unbelievers
Dwayne and I have been purposely praying for leaders, friends, and family members who are "far from God". This gives some practical words to help us with more effectual prayers!


And, finally, a take off on Paul Harvey's "So, God Made A Farmer" (read or listen to that talk here), an article on "So, God Mad a Farmer's Daughter":
https://www.theodysseyonline.com/so-god-made-farmers-daughter
I have to admit that I didn't see myself so much in that article - but I definitely pictured my niece, Ginny, and niece-by-love-and-marriage, Kendra, while reading it. (I'll look forward to hearing from friend Celesta on her opinion of this article!)
