I can’t say I left God’s house a changed person that day but I was given a gift by my uncle & his peers – a great reminder that we are all capable of being a valuable vehicle in this life. My hope is that I am remembered for being a vehicle that has traveled with the intentions to; love more, judge less, act with more patience, respond with more kindness, pour more love unto others, be less selfish, give when I am able & always remember that “tomorrow is a new day.”
That is the religion I will choose to practice. May you embrace this gift, too.
