Today is my wife Kathy’s birthday. It was fun reading through the birthday cards to find just the right one. I was such a shackled man inside when we first met, yet God gave her to me to love and to hold from this day forward. She has truly taught me so much about love, kindness and commitment. Our three daughters all say she is the one who taught them how to be a “mom”. I watched that happen too and it is true! God is amazingly good and getting to be her husband only reinforces this.

Today I get to step into several counseling sessions and be part of God’s work one session at a time. I look forward to these times. I will never be anything but humbled and thankful for the way God uses all things to His Glory and Honor as we finally let go and “let Him have His Way with thee”. (Words from the old hymn).
