Hope you are all enjoying the remainder of your summer. I found myself taking a look back at my life. Not with thoughts or feelings of regret, but of utter gratitude. Gratitude for what God has done in my life ever since I made Jesus my Lord and Savior in January of 1998. As a young marine in Okinawa, Japan, I had no idea what He had in store for me. Every now and then, a still, small voice would speak to my heart and say, "You're in just the right place.", and an assurance never known before would flood my soul.
I was on the island over a year before confessing Jesus as Lord of my life. There were divine appointments, seeds sown, and bibles left open with a loving encouragement to read it. The servicemen right outside Kadena airbase sharing the love of God with anyone who would listen. Thank God for them. Thank God I listened. I will forever be grateful.
Fast forward 15 years and now I'm blessed with a beautiful wife who loves Jesus, two adorable children who keep me busy, and a church home where I am taught the uncompromising word of God! He has brought me so far and now I am excited to know that He's going to take me even farther because He is the Author and Finisher of my faith. He began the good work in me and He will be faithful to complete it!
Just some random musings from a father in love with Jesus and his family.
In His love and mine,
David
Our blessings
