One of the most constant is that they will know truth and beauty and grace and love and true freedom in Christ. I hope there's a way around the mistakes of religion and a path to God not fraught with betrayal and deception and fear and guilt. But I doubt there's a path without pain, and the simple fact is, I can only point them in the right direction ... man, it KILLS me to admit that. I need to start teaching them now to forgive me for my inability to guard them from my mistakes. Gosh, I have thought about this post constantly since you put it up.
