So I just finished End of the Spear. Excellente! Great book. The most gut-wrenching part came when Steve Saint recounts when his only daughter comes home after a missions trip and dies. Gracious! I would not be able to live with myself. But what Steve Saint says is awesome.
"Just then a close friend came into ICU from the waiting room. He told Ginny and me that everyone was praying that God would heal Stephanie. I felt a wave of appreciation sweep over me. People of faith were praying with us. But wait: Lew (the Saints friend) had said they were praying for Steph to be healed. That prayer was not theirs to decide. My mind was made up. We would trust God and let Him write our story. I heard my own voice explaining to my friend, as though I were at a distance, overhearing the conversation. 'No, Lew, ask everyone to pray that God will do whatever he think best. And ask Him to give us the courage to accept it until we see why He wanted it this way.'"

Hey, wait to get your Concert ticket, so we can all get them at the same time and in the same section. I'm going to take my p.t. It's never been farther than Grants Pass. So if you want to ride with me you can. Besides, I don't like riding with other drivers on any road trip. I used to drive big rig and I am the biggest back seat driver in the World so It just works out best if I drive
POST SOMETHING ELSE!
Carson,
How many ladies have called you???
:)
my mama told me that guys should call girls, not girls call guys. That girls who call guys, are trying to be a guy, rather than a girl, who is to be pursued and respected.
I guess my mama liked riddles too.
None that Dan's Mama would aprove of. Seriously I am thinking about wearing a ring at my night job.
Now the ladies Dan's Mom would aprove of all know I hang out with Steve and Nate. What more could they want?
