Life’s pace is fast. It’s distractions and temptations endless. Only in slowing down does the obvious become clearer. When we are still, we (must) face the truth.
The truth is, we must believe in something. And I believe that our son shouldn’t have to look farther than across the dinner table to find the face of Jesus. That would be his greatest birthday present ever.

Excellent post. Your imagery are words speak volumes. Thank you
Patty, stillness is a breath away, or a million miles away. We get to pick. Not as easy as it should be.
What is even harder is watching the decisions our children make or fail to make.
Jeff,
I had a flashback of a song while reading your heart-felt post. Do you remember the Bob Dylan (and covered by many others) song entitled, “Gotta Serve Somebody?”
You are right – we all must believe in something. What a powerful post!
