Bonhoeffer

"The family trees of Karl and Paula Bonhoeffer are everywhere so laden with figures of accomplishment that one might expect future generations to be burdened by it all. But the welter of wonderfulness was that their heritage seems to have been a boon, one that buoyed them up so that each child seems not only to have stood on the shoulders of giants but also to have danced on them."

I want my generations to come to stand as a monument to the Lord's faithfulness.

P.S. read Eric Metaxes' bio on Bonhoeffer. I am in the first chapter and cannot put it down!
