When I was growing up, I heard that phrase more than a couple of times. It was used to refer to a time when despite advice to the contrary, I went ahead to do something foolish. Now that I am adult, I say it to my kids.
I wonder how many times God has said that to me. How many times he has winced as I take a running start, determined to fly of my own accord. How many times he has forgiven me after I have come back crying.
