I wish I'd done this a lot sooner!

I guess we all have 20/20 hindsight, but still...

I listened to Rich tonight as I was driving home from church. What a perfect night to do that! The moon was hanging full in the sky--almost like you could touch it--and the clouds were around it just so; you'd get the silver-lining effect, then you'd get the moon, then you'd get the moon with a cloud through the center...
Just a perfect night for Rich. And on top of it, I was listening to Songs--the best of everything he ever did, with maybe a couple of exceptions that ended up on Songs II and on The Jesus Record.

Anyway, I'd just finished "Elijah"--one of my very favorites--when I looked up and said, "Thanks, Rich, for leaving this stuff behind. Thanks for not just taking it with you." For some reason, then, it really hit me--I mean really hit me. I felt like God was asking me, "OK, Carolyn, what are you leaving behind--or are you going to try to take most of it with you?"

Maybe it's time to take inventory.
