-DIDI- my grandpa

Today I went to a funeral. No it wasn't my grandpas, but it was the first military ceremony I have been to since my grandpa was laid to rest eight years ago. Taps...Why is this song so touching and why are the shots that are fired so heart wrenching? How can time stand so still as those guns are being fired? As the shots rang in my ear one after another, my life was right back in California when my grandpa died. I did not realize until today how much I have missed my grandfather over the years or how much I have tried to put the feeling of loss behind me. As I drove home my guts fell out I sat there remembering all that had taken place eight years ago. I can see what was going on as they shot off the guns. I can smell the dust floating in the hot sun. I can hear the taps play from over head and I can see the men fold my grandfathers flag and with each step they would pause as in to remember another fallen soldier. I can see my grandmother receive her flag from off of the casket, and remember the tears that were in her eyes that just seemed to continue to flow. So tonight I sit here and remember all the good times that happened when he was alive and all the fun I used to have as we would sail in his sail boat around Shadow Cliffs. I miss him so much...

Relationships - something to ponder

The perfect relationship in the Bible is the Trinity. God created all relationships to mimic that one. They are one but have a submission order; the Son and the Spirit submit to the Father. Just like in our marital relationships husband ,wife and God are one but they follow a submission order. The wife submits to the husband and the husband submits to God. Thought that thought was pretty cool. We are to reflect the trinity in our marriage.
Question:
What is God made of?
