Hiatus
During prayer this morning, God told me to listen more closely and make more time for Him. I know this means I need to take a break from blogging. This is my last blog until August. I have learned to listen and obey. I will send you an email when it returns.
I will be back and I know you will too. See you this weekend!

Taking Advantage
Erica and I are on a trip that the church purchased for our birthdays. A bed and breakfast out in Comfort, TX. Near Kerrville.
No stalkers, please. No blog tomorrow.
We love you and will be at church on Saturday and Sunday.

Fatherhood by Bill Cosby
Bill Cosby wrote this in his book, Fatherhood:
Now that my father is a grandfather, he just can’t wait to give money to my kids. But when I was his kid and I asked him for fifty cents, he would tell me the story of his life. How he got up at 5 A.M. when he was seven years old and walked twenty-three miles to milk ninety cows. And the farmer for whom he worked had no bucket, so he had to squirt the milk into his little hand and then walk eight miles to the nearest can. All for 5 cents a month. The result was that I never got my 50 cents.
But now he tells my children every time he comes into the house: “Well, lets see how much money old Granddad has got for his wonderful kids.” And the minute they take money out of his hands I call them over to me and I snatch it away from them. Because that is MY money.
That is funny.

Who is your VP?
McCain and Obama’s teams are right in the middle of selecting a VP. Who will make a good choice for Vice President?
I think in their case, the decision process is more about what will make the team more electable and not who would make a great President in case the acting President is unable to continue his job. Hopefully, both will pick someone that will be a great President.
Who would you pick to be the next…whatever you do? You are a father, mother, business owner, leader, teacher, accountant, secretary, the list goes on and on. Who do you pick as your replacement?
Do you have a selection team? A group of people that can help prioritize and rank potentials. I just read that Obama has a list of 20 people as a possible VP.
Erica and I have often thought of who might raise our kids if we were to die in an accident. Such an interesting thought and conversation. There are Biblical examples… you know.
