Silly Millie - Hardcover

by Jimmy Bright (Author)

This story is about a girl named Lilly Flagg, her sister Billie, and her mighty steed, Millie. Lilly and her friends each have unique spiritual strengths which collectively make them a formidable force for good. Millie is rambunctious and playful. Billie loves her filly Millie, and they share many times together riding and most of all racing. During the moments they share racing, it is as if their spirits become one in the pursuit, the excitement and pure heart-pounding exhilaration of racing. Billie and Millie working together show what it means to work hard and strive to be their best.

Lilly and her childhood friends spend endless hours playing together and pursuing new adventures. One of these adventures is the Great Horse Race. The race is a friendly competition among friends, and as the story ultimately reveals, each of the contestants is a winner. Symbolic of the race of life, the Great Horse Race is a dress rehearsal for the race we all must run and the rewards we will receive. The Great Horse Race teaches these childhood friends about healthy competition, fairness, comradery, and honesty. The glorious Christian crowns of Victory, Life, Glory, Righteousness, and Rejoicing await us all. Ultimately, it is our choice to run the race and determine for ourselves how dedicated we are to this noble pursuit. Rest assured, God will guide our path and see us through the obstacles that stand in our way. However, win or lose, we should all be good sports and work not to undermine someone of good upstanding morals whose race may be different than our own. Our Father in heaven loves each and every one of us, especially the little children. God has the best intentions for our lives and the race we must run. So enjoy the race!
