Franklin Graham and My Plane Ride

Dear Mikey:

On my return return flight yesterday I sat behind a Muslim mother in a burka with her four adorable children ranging in age from about two to seven, two boys and two girls. The oldest boy helped the mother fasten the seat belt of the little ones. They were some of the most polite, well dressed and behaved children you’d ever find on a plane. The little girl of about five couldn’t resist a game of peek-a-boo with me looking back between the space in the seats.

My epiphany (figure of speech there) that MRFF had arrived came at about 32000 feet :

Right before my eyes was the very reason it would have been evil and wicked for Franklin Graham to lead the country of this young mother and her precious children in a National Day of Prayer.

I was thrilled all the way back to my flight destination (LA) over MRFF’s most recent monumental achievement in getting the Pentagon to “dis-invite” Graham from speaking there on its National Day of Prayer event.
