Quick follow-up. Judy just read "...Dear Bill,<br /><br />Quick follow-up. Judy just read "My Friend" and pointed out to me that the two lines on Keith's tombstone were "Home is the sailor, home from sea, And the hunter home from the hill.”<br /><br />Sorry for the oversight. Judy is much more perceptive than I am.<br /><br />Best to Uni,<br />Bob and JudyPete Palamountainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09245906293561176148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19769805.post-1151174940794761052006-06-24T13:49:00.000-05:002006-06-24T13:49:00.000-05:00Hi, Bill,I saw your blog on Uni's note and came re...Hi, Bill,<BR/><BR/>I saw your blog on Uni's note and came read your story. While i've heard you refer to this before, it was great reading the story first hand. yours, SteveAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13415029019699069356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19769805.post-1150212626900917222006-06-13T10:30:00.000-05:002006-06-13T10:30:00.000-05:00This is the first one you worte that made me cry. ...This is the first one you worte that made me cry. Even though I've heard the story before, the power of God's love still amazes me.<BR/><BR/>We don't spend enough time worrying about unbelievers cuz we're spending too much time worrying about their sin (when they're incapable of being holy since they don't have the Holy Spirit). God moves in powerful ways when we show His love to the lost.<BR/><BR/>As you know, I've always had a hard time with suffering and Hell - one of the ways I've dealt with it is believing God gives a last chance for grace - a few months before death as He did with Keith and moments before death as He did with Grandma.<BR/><BR/>I love you Dad. Your blog is great. But you're so prolific (looks like I inherited that by the length of this comment) that I have to catch up again.studio pashnadahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12636961378714714848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19769805.post-1149429573983138272006-06-04T08:59:00.000-05:002006-06-04T08:59:00.000-05:00what an amazing story, Opa.
