Prayer 681

The prayer series

Jesus,

Look!
The news is that VN is worrying because of low fertility rate.

Oh my God! Why worry?

Too many ethnic minority children
who don’t have enough to eat, wear and learn.

If we take care of them,
though we have low fertility rate,
we would still have enough intellectuals for our country.

Why worry about the size of the population?
We should focus on the quality of the population
and our ethnic minority brothers and sisters.
Right, Jesus?

Amen.
