The conversation became serious.
I was sitting next to Peter, and I recall being a bit of a motor mouth. I listened to Peter, too, and as the conversation went on, there were things he was struggling with in his life. He asked me to pray for him. I said OK, and began to pray for him aloud. As I recall, I told the Lord I didn't know Peter's need, but that He did. I prayed that the Lord would bless Peter and Sharon.

From around 11:30 to almost 2:30 that Sunday morning, the conversation on the park bench took one turn after another in a serious direction. Of the few things Peter told me regarding his struggles, mainly I recall the word "burnout" and a search to find God's path for him going forward. I’ll keep Peter's words private. I mostly remember what I shared with him---life-lessons I had learned and the person I became because of Him.

I thank Him for rescuing me and making me into the real person He wanted me to be. Most of the message/s I shared with Peter and Sharon were baseball stories.
