Ok. So we are back from Disney and had a wonderful time. But even while I am away, and am suppose to be allowing my mind to relax and recharge, I found I was busy. Not just with the usual vacation stuff...rides, shows, dinner, sleep, and of course the pool, but I found myself watching people. No. No. I wan't snooping or stalking anyone, I just watched them and wondered what type of relationship they had with God. I know its very pastoral of me to do this...
But it was true. I wondered if people could be on vacation and really encounter God in a personal way. I know I did. This was suppose to be one final trip to Disney with my whole family. Unfortunately, dad didn't make. So for the entire week I wondered what dad would be thinking if he were here.
I wondered if he would enjoy the food. I cried when his grandkids danced with Doc McStuffin and Sophia the First. I sighed when I thought about how tired he would be with all the walking we did. It gave me the opportunity to reflect with God about my relationship with dad. And so I guess to wrap up this first blog I would say, that my vacation was really spent thinking about family, about dad, and about how God with us even in the warmth of Florida.
