epiphany

Have you ever learned something about a person that profoundly changed your understanding of them? It happened to me yesterday, and the person was my daughter.

This weekend she made a sacrifice that I would never have expected. And she did it with absolutely no fanfare, no self-seeking motives. In fact, I would probably never have known about it if I had any other job in the world but this one.

I am astounded by her maturity. She may be young, but she has a wise heart.

  1. Take it as a compliment ... to your parenting ability. :)

  2. Thanks, but I really think it's the way God made her. We can try to set an example, but there are some things beyond our control.
