“Great Joy”!

5/25/10

Nothing  brings me so much pleasure than visiting with my children.An old mans life can be lonely at times,with no breaking that monotony of living life.It will bring me great pleasure when God takes me to His Kingdom to live in Eternity with them?  Now we depend upon time and the desires of our heart to placate us elders.My children have always been my mainstay in this lifetime.Not that I loved them any more than my God,but I can only guess the sudden warmth which will fill my heart when I meet my Saviour Face to Face. It will be greater than seeing my kids once again! My own children would be a blessing to any father,add to that my only grandson who is almost two years old and you have one of the scenarios for the most human contentment one can possess. My grandson fills my sons life with so much joy,it humbles me greatly. I seldom refer to humility in reference to myself or others , for I know that to even speak of it is unnecessary if one has it.To refer to having it,is never needed; So subtle it is to possess, that one feels that it might shatter into a thousand brittle pieces to even speak of it! My grandson is blending into his terrible twos,and will be a true test of my sons patience without a doubt.Ahhhhhh! fatherhood. those were the good ole days,(Smile)  I can live in my nostalgia land with my thoughts these days,for I have accepted my death, or our Lord coming very soon.Nothing  would be accomplished to dwell on this one aspect of being spiritual enough to leave this earth,so why freak out? For right now , I can love my children.

Mothers & Fathers ,

Love and Enjoy your children,

In His love,
