We went for a drive the other day....no beforehand planning found us reliving memories of our Nanaimo days...we were young then...in love.As we entered the out skirts...a gentle breeze wafted a scent of freshly milled lumber, I used to work there. Nicol street led us past Mr Venuties carved salmon...in a dry fountain... turned right on Commercial street ...passed the old Bank of Commerce building were Barb was employed. The side door still there where she would exit on thursday noon. We would have waffles and ice cream at the Plaza across the street. Continuing on to Departure Bay Rd which led us to a a spot near the beach where we talked, enjoyed each others commpany and kissed. I would get her home...around eleven p.m. On one such night, saying good night took a little longer than usual...the old 38 Dodge coup windows were fogged up a bit when a tap, tap on the window blew the moment....it was a man from Port Alberni...a self syled evangelist who admonished me: you have to keep looking up brudder. Precious memories, how they linger. We all have memories..some flesh-backs you would like to forget, or smile about, others very personal and good. Do you remember what Jesus said on the night He was betrayed? This is My body, which is for you, do this in remembrance of Me. This cup is the New covanent in my blood, do this as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me. Luke gospel 23:39 - 43 : And one of the criminals were hanged there was hurling abuse at Him, saying are you not the Christ? save yourself and us. But the other answered, and rebuking him said, Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? And we indeed justly, for we are receiving what we deserve for our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong. And he was saying, Jesus, remember me when you come in Your kingdom. And He said to him, Truly I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise Memory...Jesus remembers and so should we that this world is really not our eternal home.
