Here's my super-model son, showing off his hobbies and interests and our small town setting. I love it all - especially him. Seems like he was just a little boy and I was a young mom. I don't like that either one of us has to grow up! But how could I ever wish to go backwards when I look and see all that he has become? All that he has overcome! He is a glorious being undergoing a divine process. And now I can see that all the sin and sorrow and struggle, and the failure and the faith and the fight, were worth it. He is a radiant soul. If pointed at the right path, his potential is boundless. Not only will he succeed and find joy, he will raise up everyone around him, by virtue of his blinding light. And that's not bias. It's just gospel truth.
