I've often said that the most important thing you can give your children is wings. Because, you're not gonna always be able to bring food to the nest. You're. . . sometimes. . . they're gonna have to be able to fly by themselves.
I've never really prided myself as being quick on my feet. Maybe you've had the experience where somebody's asked you a question and you give an answer, then later in the day you think, "Oh, I wish I'd said that!" I tend to journal these things and put the answers in sermons.
