Seeing the kids

This weekend has provided us a chance to see our children, who are not little kids anymore.  Rachel is in college and Seth has graduated.  They are out of the house. 
  {The nest is empty.  That is quite a transition.  At first the house seemed too quiet.  Now, it seems nice and quiet.  ;o }

We don't see them a lot, like we did when they lived with us.  We do see them when we can, and our relationship is good.  That is a sweet thing for parents to be able to say.  So we made the run this weekend and visited.  It is a five hour drive for us to get to Rachel, and about 1.5 hours for Seth to get there.  It is worth it for us to get together for a while.

Do you suppose that God feels that way about His family?  Probably like that, but stronger.  Worth the trip from heaven to earth, through heck and back, to be able to get together.  It is not a "meet you half way" deal at all.  He did it all.  For me.  and you.

Get with Him when you can.
