Father, Wade had a beautiful service at the local Methodist Church today. He completed Cub Scouts and received his Arrow of Light. Now we are on our way to Boy Scouts! Such a wonderful thing to look forward to!

Then I take a few minutes to reflect on this and I think about how our time on earth is like a Cub Scouts time in the pack. A time to grow and work toward a goal. The goal for them is to achieve the highest rank before moving on to Boy Scouts. Our goal on earth, to grow and learn all we can and work our way to the highest rank WE can achieve, salvation and a place in Heaven with You! What an achievement!

As Wade continues to grow in scouting, may I always remember that I, too, am growing and require constant work on my ranks. Please, Great Scoutmaster, guide me in the path towards Heaven. Help me to be the best "scout" I can be so I can lead others to you!
