I looked forward to coming home and visiting my daughter. Enjoyed getting ready for camp meeting with her. Add grand daughters to the mix, we have a great fun.
One day, my daughter and I had many errands to get done. We pulled up to
the drive thru banking, she reached out and got the plastic tube to put my
transaction in. We were talking. Not really pay attention to what was going on.
We sent the tube back. The clerk sent it back to me., with my receipts and cash
back. We pulled out and continue down the road. I looked down and I said” Heidi,
We forgot to give them back the tube!”
She whips around the corner. As we get closer to the bank, there is a long
line of cars waiting to get service. My daughter jumps out of the car and grabs
the tube and goes running to the beginning of the car line. She taps on the
window, explains that her mom forgot to give the tube back. When she gets back
to her car, she told me the funny thing was, the lady inside the bank was
waiting for the tube to be sent to her and the person in the car was waiting for
the bank to send her the tube. Neither of them knew there was a problem! All
those people there. They did not know there was a problem.
I still look back on that and chuckle. But really it also reminded me,people can have a problem and not even know it. People go thru their day. They have their schedules. They have thier deadlines. They read the news or hear the news every day. But they don't take seriously the dead line that is coming up.. The Son of God is coming back very soon. We don't know exactly when it will happen. But it will. We want to be ready. We want to know are sins are forgiven. We want to live each moment for our heavenly father, knowing we will meet that deadline.
