Thanks so much for stopping by. My hope is that you will be encouraged and comforted by traveling with us on this adventure as you see how God can take the challenges of life to assure us of the living hope that is available by faith to us all through Jesus Christ.

Thanks, also, to each of you who have personally ministered to me and my family through your thoughts, prayers of faith, visits, messages, many acts of kindness and words of encouragement, especially during those dark days, and then for the long haul during my extended recovery season.

Thank You, Sons


To my beloved sons:  David, John and James

I am so thankful for each of you and was completely blown away by your kind and loving Fathers’ Day postings dedicated to me.
  I am both humbled and proud at the same time to have you as sons, godly men who are seeking as fathers to bring up your own children to become godly men and women following your example.  Aside from His gift to me of salvation through Jesus Christ and your mom as my beloved wife and friend, seeing you walk with the Lord by faith is the greatest blessing and joy I could ever ask for.

I remember so well how you closed ranks before my surgery, though separated by thousands of miles, to come together for a family prayer time over the Internet, surrounding me and Mom with your love and earnest prayers.
  And then, you traveled those many miles to rally to my bedside and to support Mom during those dark days when my recovery hung in the balance.

I will be forever grateful for each of you and look forward to spending eternity with you!


Love always,


Dad
