What I Remember

/ pastorpete51 / Leave a comment

I can’t remember growing so old

Or losing my hair

But they say that I’m there

I can’t remember not being young

To always run…oOh such fun!

But then I’ve walked with Him

Who gave breath to man

Who filled the oceans

And counted their sands

Who laughed at years

As they hurried past

His unchanged promise

That stands at last

And tonight I am tired

But not ready for sleep

And I still remember

How His love and truth

Which He gave by grace

His cross as proof

That my sins were paid

And my soul restored

So at the end of this night

I’ll awake with my Lord

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever. Psalms 23:6 NKJV

In honor of our dear little friend Laura (now 6 months old) and all the children and families whom we remember on World Down Syndrome day (Odd Socks Day) March 21, 2018 I am posting this sweet video. A family, a city and a nation defines itself not by how much money it has in the banks or how impressed others are by their beauty or abilities but rather by how its most vulnerable members are valued and loved. Odd Socks Day is a fun way to remind others of this concept by wearing mismatched socks tomorrow. Anyone care to join me in offending the fashion police? Blessings!!
