Hello all,
Well, I've finally made it home! I cannot express the gratitude that I have.
The prayers are much appreciated. To all of you I pose a question: what is it
like to know that God has used you? What is it like to know that the one true
God, creator of all that is, has chosen you to use for his purposes? So many
people have worked so hard just so that my transition to living at home would be
easier for me and my family. The renovations to the house are fantastic!
Thanks to Jon Oberdick for coordinating the efforts. Jon provided me a list of
people that he knew worked on The Project. Here it is:

I'm sure there are more folks, and to all of them, I'm grateful. These folks
did so much, what with all the construction and even moving things into the shed
(You see? I built that shed for a reason!) There were so many folks that have
been working so diligently in helping my wife and the rest of my family. These
folks have been buying groceries, cleaning my house, watching my kids, etc.
There are yet others, that have been coming together and thinking of ways to
help me and my family physically, financially, educationally, emotionally,
spiritually, and prayerfully.
The body of Christ of which I'm a member, Riverdale Presbyterian Church, has
been the core, the hub, the stake in the ground, the base floor built on the
Solid Rock on which my family may be able to build a new life. We don't know
what this new life holds in store for us, we hope only to be faithful to God
because He has always been, and will always be, faithful to us. |
