Cain’t & Able: A Tale Of Two Siblings
“The Lord looked with favor on Abel…but on Cain…He did not look with favor.” (Genesis 4:4a and 5a, NIV)
In many respects, the imagery created by Charles Dickens in the opening lines of his book A Tale of Two Cities is similar to the images one might expect as they consider the lives of our two sons – lives of marked contrast.
He was the best of sons, he was the worst of sons, his was an age of wisdom, his was an age of foolishness, his was an epoch of belief, his was an epoch of incredulity, his life a spring of hope, his life a winter of despair, he had everything before him, he had nothing before him.

Thanks for sharing this Steve. You and your wife prove that the beauty and sanctity of life is not measured in terms of worldly “usefulness.” Life is something far more–a gift from God (albeit not one we always understand). Thank you for knowing that and for sharing it with your readers.
