I thought I had given up on God,
But I didn't realize he hadn't given up on me....
Our little town, nestled in the valley, was a charming, secure place for us kids during our growing up years. Our family probably wasn't perfect, but we had a lot of fun, and we were sure of our parent's love for each other and for the four of us. Best of all, my sister-just a year older than me- was also my best friend.
Looking back on those years, I realize now how carefully and intricately the circumstances and events of childhood weave together to form the person we become. Our attitudes about life, our values and,most of all,our understanding of God, all are profoundly affected and formed through what we see modeled in our homes.
When someone's mentalimages and memories are not positive, I'm sure God's abundant grace is available in extra measure for that person.
For me, I know the things our family faced together-the joys and triumphs, the diffuculties and sorrows-have provided a firm foundation for my spiritual journey.
Let me tell you what happened back then in
DANA"S VALLEY
