July 18.... Heading Home to Pappa

Heading home to Pappa one last time..... True to form, an unknowing person in line asked Slate in what fun vacation he was going on with his mother. "My Pappa had cancer and he maybe joining my sister and Nanna in heaven soon." As the stranger stuttered a bit and them looked at me for an explanation, Slate simply said, "I'm going home to Pappa."

There are many journeys and paths that we must walk even when we don't want to. Too often, I think that we have begun to believe that to be in obedience or to walk in His path means happiness and total bliss. Yet, obedience is filed with both bliss and tears, happiness and sorrow.

It isn't in the emotions...it is in the discipline to follow.
