>From Streams In The Desert by L. B. Cowan:

Also, waiting under the clouds of trials is as important, for they will ultimately produce showers of blessings.

Rest assured that if God waits longer than we desire, it is simply to make the blessings doubly precious.

devotional for July 21, 2003

My dad would have turned 80 years of age today. Instead, he died at age 59 in 1982. My life was altered at that time and has not been the same since. He was my best friend.

Days like today make me want to think of heaven in sentimental terms. Has he seen these past twenty one years? Has he seen his granddaughters grow up? Does he know how much he’s been missed?

Does he have any idea just how completely he provided for us during his working years?

The girls are amazing, Dad. Oh how I wish they could have known you.
