Good Morning,
I just finished brewing my last pot of Door County Mistletoe Mocha and in a few minutes I will also be on the road.
James 4:14 Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.
When you are a young person you never think about planning for when your grandparents or parents will no longer be with you. If I had been smarter back in the day, I would have written down some of the things they taught me. Or I would have inquired more about lessons they taught to me and noted some of the finer points.
I would have taken some time to write down a few of the recipes that I was fond of. I know for sure that I would have recorded how to make my mothers' chicken and dumplings. But we just assume there will always be time enough to get serious about going on without them.
My point is this. Death will knock on doors for everyone. Why not admit it and plan ahead with some pictures and some notes? Be sure to leave your Bible for your family and have some verses underlined. Tell them about your faith now. Don't make them wonder where you stood with God.
Share your recipes now, or notes from the family archives. Sit down with your family and talk about "after you go". It might just make it easier when you actually do leave.
Have a great day!
Marty
