Does this mean that he has learned that you have to take care of the things you value? Does it go beyond livestock? Could it also apply to humans?
This is what you would think, Sara. It seems he doesn't transfer these lessons very well. When he said that remark about God punishing him for his sins, well, if he truly believed that, he should extend that logic to say that until he straightens up and behaves like a husband/father should, he will continue to have problems. (Not that I think the calf dying was truly a Biblical punishment, but H acts like he believes it)
Yes, he said he learned his lesson about not valuing his animals. We shall see if he ever learns to value his people.
The one positive I am taking away from it all is that he texted me about it immediately after it happened. And he texted me to call him right after the work debacle Wednesday. It seems when the going gets tough, his first reaction is still to reach out to me...
