Fathers and Sons



Easter was a good day.  As it should be.  There should be no better day.  There is no day with more meaning.  I've been thinking about this post for a while.  I'm not sure if I can say what I want.  I'm not sure it won't sound blasphemous.  God knows my heart and knows my capacity for comparison is limited so I'll try to put it into words.

Heavenly Father gave us his Son.  He could have saved him from the agony and the death.  He had the power.  He let it happen.  It was part of a plan.

Keith has God's power on earth--the priesthood.  He could have healed Ian.  He had done it before.  It wasn't beyond possibility.  In what would be his final words to his son, he bent his will to what the Spirit whispered and told Ian to go.  He gave God his son.  It was also part of a plan.

I thought I could say more and record those events with more detail.  I'm not ready.
