Fifteen seems to diminish the questioning. I miss it somehow. All of the pepper that was from 5 years old to 14, grow into a commanding personality.
I am grateful for the sermons on "Solomon's School" that prepared me for this. The old pastor strongly reproved the young men for the attitude that they naturally would have toward their aging mother. I said to myself, how could a "godly" young man develop such an attitude and still be in the "wisdom" school at home. I see now, my son through your and your elder brother's behavior. I watch you hold yourself back from reproving your parents and sometimes stumble because you see our flaws very clearly. Asking the questions and answering them was a much more comfortable season. God give us grace to live peaceably, in spite of ourselves. I love you and you love me! God grant us to submit to God rightly, in Jesus' Name.
