"The Little Lame Prince and his Travelling Cloak" (often published under its shorter title "The Little Lame Prince") is a story for children first published in 1875. In the story, a young prince whose legs are paralysed due to a childhood trauma is given a magical travelling cloak by his fairy godmother; he uses this cloak to go on various adventures and develops great wisdom and empathy in the process."
--Book review from http://www.shelfari.com/
I found this little book a very nice afternoon read, and loved how every page of it reminded me of all my favorite fairytale stories... and precisely that, got me to wondering something: do fairytales, with their magic & fairy godmothers, undermine or contradict God's ways?
Just a thought... if you have any thoughts yourself, leave us a comment. :) Discussions like this can be very engaging & fun.

Well, I for one don't know of any good story that doesn't reflect God or Christ in some way or another...
Interesting observation!
And you know, I think you have got to be right, because if it wasn't true the Scriptures that go, "every good and perfect gift decends from the Father of Lights in whomt here is no shadow of turning..." would be null & void!
Okay, so God is good, but does that mean all good is God's (or attributed to God) in some way?
