Now and Forever

As I sit here, watching the road for David to come home, I am reminded how we always watch for our loved ones to return.
I will do that as long as we live. I will anxiously await his arrival.
That reminds me of the many nights I waited for my children to come back home from a date or a chore in town or a visit to a friend.
Charles was my first, he taught me to be patient. (well more patient than usual).
I would wait and wait until I could hear his car come into the drive.
One night I prayed exceptionally hard for him to get home safe. Not that he was doing something wrong but a parent cant help but worry.
A car came down the road, it had a certain sound. The next car to drive down the road was Charles.
From that night on I called the first car my Herald Car, Really I did. It seemed every time I heard that car, I knew he was not far behind.
I would tell David, "I just heard the herald car so he will be here shortly."
Now remember we lived on a country road, so not a lot of traffic was common late at night.

So now and Forever I will be praying for you, I will be watching over you, I will protect you from the world as much as possible. That is my prayer for you.
Herald the coming of God in your life, watch for the signs. Pray Daily.
So he is now home and I can go greet him, My Soul Mate, My Love, My life.
