FLYING FROM THE NEST

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuesday: Welcome to it,, and may you enjoy it to your utt-most! What ever you do, carry your head high, look,,, but see what is really important, put your heart in the right place, walk with the right ones, and your conscience will be clear as Gods' blue sky! Just what He ordered for you , this day.

FLYING FROM THE NEST!

One of the hardest things a parent can do,,, is watch their young fly from the nest of home. After the joy of birth, the watching of the years of growing,, the maturing, of which at three, to 12, you thought they never would mature to where they are today... You have done all ,, you have cloth them, fed them, cleaned them,, taught them, sent them to the teachers,, watched as they put on a new pair of shoes,,, only to exclaim in just a few months , they were either too small already or they were out of style,, on my the $$$$$.. but with a sigh, and a small smile,, out the door and hunt through the crowds to fine those "just right" things , so they did not stand out the "not stylish" ,but the style to where they fit into the good crowd... yes,, tough to supply,, but a blessing now.. for look what you have produced... not a person of just great minds,, good manners,, good looks,, but children of God,, for the one thing you did,, was you had them in the house of God,, you got to watch them walk the aisle to Jesus,, now you get to shed a tear as they walk on into the world,, one more step into their own,, but always with-in your heart, taking a piece of you with them,, and if you will listen to that whisper in your ear,, you will hear these words,,,

MOTHER, FATHER, YOU BOTH HAVE DONE A GOOD JOB!

Now,, let them fly, for they have earned their wings,, to school , to life,, and as they go with you in their heart, remember they carry God with them also...

God, thank you for our young who are off to school and to life ,, be with them and keep them with -in your bosom at all times. amen

I can remember ours going out,, the hardest thing to do is walk by an empty room.. but when you stop,, and listen you can still hear the laughter and the sounds of all the love in this world,, just keep your eyes on the drive-way for the return reunions,, just as great as anything can get... trust in your children, and trust in your God.....
