Okay, so this would have been a good Halloween pic. Unfortunately I already had my Halloween blog ready when I took this picture. One of the followers of this blog suggested that these ghost like characters reminded her of the many people who, through the years, have walked underneath Grandfather Cottonwood.
There are many who have walked the path of life before us.
"After these things I saw a large crowd from every nation, tribe, people, and language. No one was able to count how many people there were. They were standing in front of the throne and the lamb. They were wearing white robes, holding palm branches in their hands, and crying out in a loud voice, 'Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the lamb!'" Revelation 7:9-10 God's Word to the Nations
I picture my father walking underneath Grandfather Cottonwood. His memory walks with me. I can see him trying to have family devotions, working a month in advance to make the decorations for our Christmas celebration at Grace Lutheran Church and his uber excitement about learning the concepts from the Bethel Bible Series.
Who, for you, is the shadowy figure walking under Grandfather Cottonwood? Who is that person who taught you the faith and lived that faith?
As you recall who that person, also remember that others look to you as one who walks under Grandfather Cottonwood.
