The other day, Steve, Dad and I were talking about our hometown of Pasadena, TX. I mentioned a place that I told them was located near the new library. Steve said he didn’t know Pasadena had built a new library and asked when had they opened it. I told him I thought it was in 1962. He and Dad laughed at me. They said the new library is now 59 years old! Steve said it wasn’t a “new” library. I told him he should have seen the “old” library. Boy it was small, but I still remember walking there from Gardens Elementary. I always loved the smell of books. The new library is nice, but doesn’t have the aroma and memories of the old library. I think a library should have the memories of the “old” library and the experience of the “new” one.
Remember when you were first saved? For me, it was before they built the “new” library. I love it when God reminds me of those first few days after I met Him. They are still fresh in my mind and remind me how awesome a walk with The Lord is. But, today I can enjoy the memories of the most important change in my life along with the experiences God has given me throughout it.
