Palm Sunday

March 28 - Palm Sunday - I sang a song in church for the service.  The song is about a young boy named Peter, who I met over 20 years ago.  At the age of three, he fell in a pond and suffered a near drowning.  When I met him at the age of 12, he told me how much he enjoyed my music, not with words but with smiles and body language. His father told me the details of the event that changed all their lives, and I wrote the song Forever Child.  As our pastor Karen Oehl said in her sermon on Palm Sunday, what often seems like the end of the road is not the end.  There is more to the story.  And that is true, as Peter is now 37, thriving under his parents' care. .
