I have 3 step children; their ages are 21, 14, and 12. They came to visit me this past weekend. This is significant, because I had not seen the two little ones, as we like to refer to them, in some 10 months. I see the oldest, Natalie, fairly frequently; however, Emily; 14, and David; 12 not so much.
They were staying at their grandmother’s house. I thought it might be nice if I stopped by to say hello. So I did, and we had a great time. They are so big, have grown, and matured so much that I almost did not recognize them. We played some of the same games we used to play when we all lived together. It was a very good time.
I hoped that during the visit they would see a different person than the man they once knew. I had this hope and still do because I have seen and know the work that the Creator has done in me, and how far along He has brought me from that time in the past. I am different because of His gracious nature and His desire to repair the brokenness that I for so long entertained.
I hope they saw the difference…I do.
