COT: QIC reflected on his aging parents and coming to terms with the physical and mental limits that they are starting to face. This is something that we will likely all experience at some point in our lives. YHC made a pledge to have more patience, but more importantly, to try and focus more on the quality time spent with them while they’re with us…..even if that quality time means explaining to them for the 30th time that they successfully changed the clock on the microwave oven but failed in reheating the meatloaf.

COT: Psalm 8:3-4 “When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him?” David must have spent many nights as a shepherd or on the run from Saul meditating on the Lord’s promises while looking up at the same stars we still see. As we come out of the Easter season, let us remember the Lord’s care for us in that he sent his only begotten that whoever should believe in him should not perish but have eternal life

CoT: “Belief isn’t simply a thing for fair times and bright days. What is belief—what is faith—if you don’t continue in it after failure? Anyone can believe in someone, or something, that always succeeds, but failure, now, that is hard to believe in, certainly and truly. Difficult enough to have value.” – Brandon Sanderson, Mistborn: The Final Empire
