I often don't know where mine stand, although I do see Steven praying before his meals (he eats at different times then we do because he works so much) and I know he wants to follow God, just don't know how disciplined he is with devotional time. Michael, I just don't know. He seems to enjoy certain messages at church and who he chooses for friends seems to be good... All I can do is pray. I remember Dad having devotions and praying...I could hear him talking under his breath, although couldn't really hear what he was saying. I fear I haven't been this kind of example for my kids. My own devotions are sometimes inconsistent or in the quiet of our home when they're not here. I hope they see Christ in me.<br /><br />So happy about your new job! Neat how it came about. I guess this was God's plan. :) Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494061549313899425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19844602.post-76340888528683033452015-09-05T20:47:34.660-04:002015-09-05T20:47:34.660-04:00I enjoyed reading this post very much. You have so...I enjoyed reading this post very much. You have some really great kids. I'm proud of you and Jamie and them too.<br /><br />Leaving kids at college is hard. Jim wasn't even 18 when we left him in Pensacola. It was July and he couldn't even come home to visit until Christmas. By Thanksgiving he sounded so lonely that it nearly broke my heart. I'm glad your kids have each other. (I know, I said that before.)<br /><br />Sometimes the surprises life dishes up are good, and sometimes no so good. (You can pray for me. I'm not sick, just struggling through the swamp.)<br /><br />Love the dark nights when the stars shine bright. I went to Tops for "supplies" last night (can't run out of those...) and was looking at the night sky too. I can find the Big Dipper and maybe Cassiopeia, but that's about it.<br /><br />Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293816902877287168noreply@blogger.com
