When COVID Comes A Knockin’

When COVID comes a’ knockin’
Knocking at your door
What do you say? What do you do?
Do you cry? Do you scream?

If you’re going to do what you’re going to do anyway, why bother praying to God? Do you think a judge would grant your request, despite your refusal to obey the law? If not, then why petition the court to rule in your favor? Continue reading “When Your Prayers Don’t Change Anything”
