So when our oldest son, who is now 30, I was seven years old, this true story, because I'm in church, so I wouldn't make this up, when he was seven years old, our standard babysitter, you know how you have like the go-to babysitter that, you know, she's there, you know, and it's usually a woman, you know, that's there all the time. This young lady was our standard go-to babysitter. And one afternoon,

she ran over his arm with her Honda accord in our driveway, right over his arm. I know. That was

the proper response. Earlier when I shared that story, it was just like quiet. I'm like,

the proper response is, yeah, anyway. So she ran over his arm in our driveway, so we're all

running out there you know

and the good the silver lining is from that moment on Andrew had the upper hand in the relationship

it's very difficult to say no to a child when you ran over his arm in his own driveway with your Honda

accord you know Andrew is time it's time to go upstairs

and get ready for bed.

I don't think so.

Remember when you ran over my arm

with your Honda Accord?

I'll take a root beer on crushed ice, please, you know.

Now, Melissa, the babysitter, was horrified, as you can imagine.

But as it turns out, it was an accident. She didn't mean to run over his arm. She didn't do it on purpose. So when we found out, you know, we were home. You know, she was leaving, actually, because we'd just gotten home. She was leaving. It was in daytime. When we, you know, found out that it was an accident that she didn't mean to, we didn't see any reason to take Andrew to the ER. Because, well, it was an accident, I mean, which meant he was fine, right? And I said, Andrew, stop crying. She didn't mean to do it. Stop crying. It was an accident. Besides, he had on underarmored sweatshirt. I kept saying, you got on an underarmor sweatshirt.or sweatshirt. I mean, you're fine, and it was an accident. Actually, we did take Andrew to the ER, as you would imagine. Some of you were like, what? Yeah, we did take it to the ER because, and this is what we're going to talk about for the next few minutes, so buckle up, because there is no necessary correlation between intent and outcome. There is no, I almost put,

there's no correlation, but there will give you a little wiggle room. There's no necessary

correlation between intent and outcome. So if you came for something deep today, that's it.
