Papa asked me for a haircut this past Saturday. A haircut is no small endeavor. The movement to and from his bed and the need to sit up in a wheelchair for this period of time would involve intense pain, vomiting and will exhaust him. Why did he want a haircut? He feels he will be going “home” soon and he wanted to look nice for his Lord. Needless to say, he bravely endured his haircut and we trimmed his mustache….he looks fabulous.
“To look nice for his Lord”…..a small glimpse into the heart of this precious man I love so very dearly.

ReplyDeleteOh chessa, what a dear, dear man. That says soooooo much about who he is.....How in the world do you ever say goodbye to someone like this? I am praying for His all sufficient grace for you, girl! He is in charge of it all- and the knowledge of that alone gives comfort. :)
