You Are My Heritage: Thoughts From A Father As His Daughter Enters College (A Lay Cistercian Lectio Divina Series)

Thoughts from a Father as His Daughter Enters College I was terrified when my daughter first entered Florida State University, and now she is about to be graduated. All parents are concerned about turning their precious, sheltered children loose in a strange setting. I can't remember my parents being anxious and nervous when as I entered college, but they were. The Florida State University is not any different than any other seat of higher learning. I wrote down my fears and anxieties to my daughter, Martha, and now I would like to share them with you. Some of these ideas may help you in your own Odyssey through life's challenges. The bird is out of the nest and must learn to fly. The values we parents try to instill into our children are our heritage, our investment in the future. These principles must be learned experien- tially by our children, as they test them and find out if they are true. We had to do the same thing. Here are some of the lessons about life that I have learned. 50 Things I Wish I Knew at Your Age Bedtime Stories from Your Old Dad Gifts for Your Journey from God The Poetry of the Spirit Sex, Sin, Evil, and the Cost of Being a Disciple My Personal Relationship with You and God For My Daughter: The most important part of my life is not only you, Martha, but what I have tried to share with you about life, values, and relationship with God and others. I want you to pass on to others what I have tried to share with you, the purpose of life and how to get to Heaven.
