It is 4:40 am and we are almost ready to leave for the airport.  Even though one might be physically ready, the emotional angst is always present.  There is a responsibility I sense when doing something like Randy’s memorial service.  I know there will be several present who don’t know Jesus as their Lord and Savior as Randy did.  Randy was a quiet man but I do think he’d want something said at his service.  I’ve worked that into the short message I’ve prepared.  I want Randy and God to be glorified in this.  I’ve written what I believe God wants said.  In reading it to Kathy yesterday she said it was good.  I’ll trust this unless there is something God gives me later this week.

There will be six of us Idahoans arriving today and two more Thursday.  I’m glad all of us here could go.  I’m not sure what is needing to be done but I do believe just being there is the most important.  In spite of all the dysfunction in our family, it does pull together in times like this.  Praise God.
