Maybe...

Maybe...
Maybe it's true, there really is a generation gap in our tastes, and I'm just too old-fashioned.

Maybe...
Maybe I've been too hard on them, expected them to grow up too fast, and not given them the room to grow, explore, have fun.

Maybe...
Maybe I was not close enough to God, and therefore was completely wrong in everything that I felt, said or did.

This is the first time I have ever felt such a wide rift between us... This is the first time I have ever felt like it could all end because of our differences.

This is not the first time I have felt that I am not contributing to anybody's growth.

Maybe...
Maybe the nay-sayers were right after all.

Father, please give all the parties involved a good rest tonight, and a peace in their hearts as they worship You tomorrow... Grant that we speak not from ourselves but from Your heart and Your words, Father. May we love each other as deeply as You love us. In Jesus' most precious and holy name, we pray, Amen.
