Don't get up, I will find my way out: New Servicemen

New Servicemen

Two of our family members have enlisted in the military in the last month. My nephew Jonathon is joining the Navy and planning to get into the nuclear technician program. Andrew has enlisted in the USAF and is still waiting to figure out which field he will be in (with a 95% he can choose any job he wants!!!)

I am very proud of both of them and wish them the very best.

Gratitude

As I wend my way through the fields, fens and forests of life, I find myself changing - oh not in large obvious ways for the most part, but in gentle, subtle ways (well sometimes large, obvious and PAINFUL ways). I take with me a little bit of every place I have been. Of all the influences in my life, by far the greatest is my Lord and Savior - Jesus Christ. His grace and mercy are the reason I am still breathing and "wending." From Him, I endeavor to take the most "bits" and apply the most change.

Of great importance in my life is my beautiful wife, Emma. She is truly the love of my life and my dearest treasure. She too has displayed enormous grace and mercy in our relationship. Without her at my side I would drift aimlessly indeed. She carries my love and my pride with her wherever she goes.
