Miracles Happen

Friday, October 06, 2006

Tonight before I came to work, I went to the church to pick up the boys. They went to a Draft party for Flag Football to see which team they were playing on this Saturday. I called as I arrived at the church, they met me in the parking lot, laughing because they both ended up on the same team.

Interesting thing was on the way home both of them were talking on the phone. One of them was saying something about how he never thought he would have a job and be on his own. He was explaining to someone how he used to be. He said I thought I would be in prison one day. Then he explained I used to think I would never get married, but now, I want to get married. He was saying how he used to want to sleep with as many girls as he could with no committment but now he wanted to get married first and he wanted to raise a family, go to college and have the life God intended for him to have. This same kid told his father he wasn't going to be the man he is, that he had seen him sell drugs, stab someone and put his hands on his mother. The miracle in all this is only God can change a life.
