God's Goodness
I am sitting at starbucks in the beautiful Sierra Mountains with London (my daughter). This is the last week before school for both my kids so we are enjoying some much needed family time. As I look up at the majestic mountains at "Heavenly" to my right and beautiful Lake Tahoe down below, I can't help but think of how blessed I am. God has blessed me with a wonderful family, a great church and so many great friends and most of all....I have the wonderful gift of the Holy Ghost. London and I drove through the mountains this morning while Boss and Sheila were still in bed.
These are special moments, next week she enters her senior year of High School and Boston starts his freshmen year of college. As He was registering for class my mind went back to what seems like yesterday, to the day my dad took me to the LSU campus to register me for class (gueax tigers). Where has time gone? This life is so fleeting. We are as the "grass that withereth", so while I am here, I want to recognize the moments of blessing that our wonderful God provides. Nothing is much better than sitting here "saved" in Tahoe, drinking a Sugar-free, vanilla, Breve, latte (de-caff) with my Daughter.
