At one point Jesus told the people around him that if the disciples should not praise Him that the stones would immediately break into singing. There was a time when the angels were allowed to praise Jesus and they appeared to shepherds many years ago. How their chests must have swelled with joy as they gave their utmost in singing.

I can not, and will not try, to please everyone. Sometimes a father has to make tough decisions and not everyone gets their way. But I will try to fill each ones’ cup of self-worth.

I want to live my life now and be in the present. When my mind strays to the regrets of the past or the fears of the future I will take hands with the now and make it the best day.
