But I remember the story of a man whose little child had died in England. On the tombstone he had etched, "He came in, looked around, didn't like and turned around." How sad I thought to capsulize this child's short existence in this way... Today, as I write this a breeze is blowing across my left cheek from the Pacific Ocean. My cat is on his tippy toes peering through the slats of our wood shutters spying a hummingbird sucking nectar from our beautifully handcrafted flowers our Maker made for me...for us. Today I reflect that my 17 year old daughter told me that her boyfriend, Federico is close to making a decision for Christ. I think about all my reservations this past 18 mos. as they've dated and all the times I almost blew it by saying what I really thought which could have pushed this young man away from us, from Christ. But God helped me hold my lips. He will become part of our heavenly family and all is well in the world.. The tv is off and now there is just silence except for the gentle breeze and the tweet of the birds in the not too distant... I rejoice that our Lord is in control and not I.. S.
