7 years ago, I sat in a parking lot waiting for my child to finish class, yes a senior in high school and he did not want to drive. I did not mind, because it was good time to talk and discuss the future. As I look back I realize that we only discussed his future, now I realize that children need to hear from their parents that they have future plans too. We are never done with our future building plan, not just when I retire, or when I get old, remember to say today, as I get old as I retire, I will be ___________.
So much has changed in 8 years, what seemed so important and urgent, (people, job, soical) has gone and a gratitude takes it's place. Associates, which at that time were called friends, gone, and what a real blessing that is to know who is really there for you when it is not popular. Mentally I have changed totally, I truly understand that being a religious person has nothing to do with a righteous person, faith is what you believe not what you say, and that God is there all the time, even if you are not looking:)
with that said, I return to the same parking lot and sigh, where do I park, and will I be late to class:) apart from God I can do nothing, amen
John 15-5 apart from me you can do nothing.
