pondering

As John and I have been traveling,I have enjoyed the beautiful tranquil scenery.  My thoughts turn in prayer for my loved ones.

Two things that I have heard,that mean more and more to me as my family grows older.

1. A father said to his wayward son,                    " son,maybe your right. Maybe I should stop living a such a close careful life" the son said,  " oh no dad,how will we find our way back home?"

2.An older sister in Christ told me, she prays "lord,remember the one closest to a lost eternity "

My thought.... it imperative that I dont back up and I dont stop praying.
