The older my husband gets, the more he looks like his dad.
But, last night...I don't know what it was...maybe it was the extra stubble on his cheeks and chin from not shaving the last couple of days at camp...or maybe it was seeing him for the first time in a few days that really made me aware of it.
We were having a serious conversation, sitting across the table from one another, and I just blurted out, "Wow! You look so much like your dad today!"
Tears filled his eyes and he said, "That's funny because I am really missing him right now and wish he was here. He would understand."
The reflection of his father was most evident to me during a time of uncertainty and confusion for Dan.
How does the world see us in our times of uncertainty and confusion? Do they still see the reflection of our Father in us, even when we may not "feel" on top of it?
I want to look like my Father every day, but I hope that the resemblance is stronger when I need Him the most.

This is very good and so true! I want to have the kindness, the gentle spirit, the love and the compassion of my Father! I simply want to be MORE like Him!
Love you both.
