At first I saw God as my observer, my judge, keeping track of the things I did wrong, so as to know whether I merited heaven or hell when I die. He was out there sort of like a president. I recognized his picture when I saw it, but I really didn’t know Him.

You should have seen the back of our Excursion on our trip to South Carolina. You would have thought we were moving back! We didn’t know whether the weather would be hot or cold, and we didn’t know whether or not we would be able to do some laundry while we were there, so we packed heavily and
