Yeah, it's that day.
I?ve had a couple days like that, I grew up as an army brat, we were constantly moving around and I was always the new awkward kid until my early teens. People can be nasty and I withdrew a little in some ways but tried to fit in with the class clown routine. I tried to be friends with anyone who would be nice and after we quit moving around and I got involved in sports and quit being the new kid I always seemed to have the new kids or the awkward kids gravitated towards me because I treated them with kindness. Different reasons for this but the main ones were my mother who had a beautiful heart and my granny who always read her bible and prayed for me. I believe they shaped me through their examples of how to treat others. I also ran into a man who had great forgiveness and at 16, right when I was on the verge of going down the wrong path I became a Christian. The man I met was the God-Man, Jesus Christ. Also I had a Sunday school teacher, a local tobacco farmer I worked for in the summer, who shared Christ in the way he lived and how he treated a kid like me. I grew from these experiences and many others and eventually while in high school and working at a grocery store I met my future wife and God laid out my life plan in my heart and mind kinda like he puts it in the geese and ducks to migrate. He led me into a 35 year career in law enforcement starting with the US Army Military Police and ending with the Virginia State Police. I think that when God created us he placed a void in our hearts that only he can satisfy. Material things fall short as do alcohol or drugs. Even relationships with other people cannot substitute for the peace that Jesus brings to you. I hope you are doing better and that your trip to Vietnam went/goes well. I?ve always wanted to go there after listening to my father?s stories about his time there during the war.
