High School grads were honored this past Sunday at Lord of Life church. They shared memories, gave them blankets, and blessed them as they go on the next road of life’s journey.
I didn’t cry. I am amazed at my grown son and how willing he is to spread his wings and venture out into the world. He knows he needs to carve his own path and is doing so with enthusiasm. That’s nothing to cry about. I feel blessed.
Thank you, God, for my strong and daring son. May he always have the courage to…
Go. Create. Inspire!
Amen.
