Princesses

I was in Target the other day and a group of women and children passed by me. There was a Snow White costume nearby and one of the women started fussing that it was beautiful and another one of the women should get it for one of her two daughters to wear for Halloween. The other mother harumphed a "no!" and kept walking. The first woman said something to the little girls like, "Don't you want to be a princess?" The girls' mother said, "She ain't no princess." The first woman said, "Don't you ever tell a little girl she's not a princess! All girls are princesses!" (I was silently cheering her on!). But the mother turned her back and said (in poor English)--"Princess don't exist." They walked away and I was saddened by that display--and in front of her daughters, even. Princesses DO exist. Historically, factually, and spiritually. I am grateful today for the dozens and scores of girls who have heard us say that to them, and the many more who have heard it from others we have never met. As children of Christ, we are ROYALTY. Don't you ever forget it. Want some inspiration? Scroll back through our photo albums to the one marked "Princesses." Those girls can tell you exactly who they are.
