I AM THE mirror of my parent’s example. When you look at me, you see them. In the same way, my daughter reflects both her dad and I. Sometimes, startlingly so. I tease my aunt she is like my grandmother, and my mother of the same. I can see it. They can’t until I point it out.
I am also a reflection of my heavenly Father, whose kindness and gentleness sent Jesus to earth, to reveal Him to us. What could not be seen before then can be seen clearly now. On the cross, hung the Son of God, who did nothing of His own will but only what Dad would do. In this modern age, we are all about letting our kids stretch their wings, but Jesus shows us another way. Instead of carving their own path, our children should follow able in our well-marked footsteps.
Well-marked because they look just like Jesus.
"I can’t possibly go back to my life before Lilac.”
Apollo Adderly was the most beautiful sight a girl could ever behold, and he just might make this false vacation worth all the trouble for Liane Arnoult. Dragged off to see her father, she has no intention of accepting his apology. What he’s done is simply unforgiveable.
Yet maybe in matters of the heart, she doesn’t know everything she should, and maybe this boy she’s come to adore, who fondly named her Lilac, will teach her the most important lesson of all. The lasting power of love.
