This is a wonderful story about the faith of six-year-old Åsne Bergland who lives in Sortland, Norway, north of The Arctic Circle.
By Andrew McChesney, Adventist Mission
Little Åsne Bergland tumbled out of bed at 8 a.m. After a shower, she got dressed and carefully brushed out her long blond hair. She remembered that she had to keep her hair neat all day. So, she had two choices: Put on a headband, or ask Mother or Father to tie her hair into a ponytail in the back.
Åsne didn’t want a ponytail. She liked her hair to be open and free.
