More on Chick Fil-A

Gayle asked, "I wonder if it was because he is homeschooled, because surely it's not an attack on his faith, since it's a Christian company?" There were homeschoolers and non homeschoolers alike who were targeted by the Emperor. It was mentioned by several that she would pick out those that she did not like and make their work experience miserable until they quit. Chick Fil-A is an awesome organization. We think they are great and the store Gabriel worked for in Alabama was exemplary. This particular store here is owned by a man who professes to be a Christian but managed by two individuals that are not. I cannot attest to the faith of the others but Gabriel has taken a stand for Jesus Christ. I believe that this was both an attack from the enemy as well as a test from God.

Gayle also said, "I bet that was a hard thing to deal with as a Mom. I probably would have been seething." Yes, more than once I wanted to walk in there and give some people a piece of my mind. I just might have if I thought it would accomplish anything. I am learning that one of the hardest parts of being a mom is watching your child grow spiritually. It is the storms of life that increase your faith and draw you closer to the Lord. Children cannot ride through life on the lessons their parents' have learned. They must face battles of their own. It is heartbreaking for a mom to sit and watch as the storms rage in the life of a child. I am constantly reminded that my Saviour who loves me also loves my children more that I ever could. The Lord is my Shepherd. He is their Shepherd too.
