From the Road
If you are reading this, it’s because my thoughts are never far away from you. You are the tools our Father has used in my heart as we travel the warrior’s road. You are my circle, my band, and I love you greatly. I thank God for your victories, struggles, and failures. God uses these…
Me and You
This is my second favorite picture of you and me. My favorite is the one when you are a baby giving me a big smooch on the lips. I think it’s on the mantle above the fire place in the livingroom But I don’t know, that’s just me talkin’.
Juicy and Delicious
Ashley, You are such a joy to me. I love watching you grow and mature. Don’t be discouraged because of the trials you go thru with Heather. See them as a personal invitation from God to you to become more intimate with Him. I know we haven’t always seen eye-to-eye on how God speaks but…
Where to Now?
I’m sitting in a motel room in Orlando, Florida. It’s raining outside and your brother Nick is making himself a thorn to all human life around him. At the moment he is picking at his brother Luc. Now he is turning the lights on and off. Just as I finished the last sentence he shot…
Courage
Ashley, These past few days I can’t stop thinking of you. My thoughts of you and my prayers for you become one. Thanks for calling me the other evening. I was glad to hear you tell me that you loved me. Thanks for those words. I was very relieved to hear you tell me that…

Memories
Gentlemen, I was reminded last night of the value of the past. The Israelites built memorials in the wilderness. These memorials were to remind the wandering Jews of God’s faithfulness in the past. When the time of manna was over a portion was saved in a jar to remind the people of God’s faithfulness. Okay,…
Bad News, Hard Stuff, and Gold
Boaz, I appreciate your words about Ashlee last week. I’m not much of a communicator on-line with people whom I’m not closely connected. Don’t think I don’t value your insight because I was not very responsive to your words. I heard you. What an opportunity you and Ruth have freely given to Ashlee! What a…
What Time Is It?
Hey Sweetie, The thing about hard times is that they don’t last. Do me a small favor. For just a moment look up from your tough circumstances and step away from them. Find someone who is having a hard time and help them. Who comes to mind? I know it sounds like cheesy advice but…
