Song - Child of My Heart
No matter how quickly our children grow, there is never a point at which a parent
ceases to love and care for his or her child. The hopes and dreams a father or a
mother whispers over their little one’s crib never diminish. Having been blessed with two healthy children, I’m afraid I am guilty of taking their health, and therefore their futures, for granted. But as I stand on the sidelines and watch a young girl and her family battle cancer, I realize that I should get on my knees every day and thank God for my children and my wife. May I never again take for granted these precious gifts.
To Roo and her family — thank you for your example of faith, courage, honesty and grace under fire. “But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength: they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” Isiah 40:31
