Just Thinking...

Listening to some Kenny Chesney and for some reason I’m thinking about my future children. I’m wondering If I will worry the first time I see them, overwhelmed by the responsibility that comes with them or just cherish their existence. I’m wondering if they will look more like me, or their mom. I’m wondering if they will be good kids like their mom was or a terrible little one like I was. Either way, I will love them and always try to point them in the right direction.

I’m thinking that one day they will go through tough days, maybe even tough seasons in their life. I’m wondering if they are going to like to listen to Kenny chesney or Jack’s mannequin on those days like their old man, or if they are going to be into some weird modern music of their day that I won’t understand. I can’t wait to take them fishing or hunting and pour my heart, vision and encouragement into their lives as much as I can.

And a thought that comes to mind while writing all of this: That’s how God loves me too! I know he sees me when I’m going through tough times, and I know he gave Kenny and Andrew the ability to write the music that cheers me up on bad days. I know that he knew I would like fishing and hunting. But more than anything, I know he he can’t wait to pour His heart, vision and encouragement into me when I’m having a tough day or a good one.

…Sorry, I know that these thoughts are pretty random.
