A friend I made late in life

Grew up in rural WV. He said there were two pictures on their wall: Jesus and FDR.
His Mother would complain that it was sacrilege to have them both at the same level, but his Dad said FDR should have been placed higher, because Jesus promises to save you, but FDR had directly and definitely saved their family’s life during the Great Depression.
