Thus Far,


Me and mine family are doing great. Samuel just turned three and he is a ball of energy. They call him `Live Wire’ around here. He gets us all worked up. He learned to speak too and he is very imaginative. He comes up with all kinds of Ideas. His past time is watching T.V. Especially the Looney tunes. His favorite character is Popeye and Spider man

Mercy just graduated from Kindergarten. You should have seen her walk the aisle through the auditorium to the front. She was best in sports and they say she has a leadership streak. “I’m Proud of you.” I hollered at her when she passed by me.

Anita now eight has come a long way this season. She is a “go getter”, she won’t stop at nothing. Once she makes up her mind on what she wants, she goes for it. She got Excellent Academics Award after receiving all A’s in reading, Language, Math, Science, and Social studies.

We’ve got a lot to thank God for. We've weathered tornadoes, survived the winter and are braced for summer. I have had fewer opportunities to minister. I did the Easter Meeting and a one time invitation to the Christian Leadership Fellowship on cable 18. We still attend services at the CCF and my Kids love the children classes there. I have tried to convince them to explore but they won’t trade it for anything.

My next door neighbor has changed his garage into a church. Some folk from Colorado are trying to setup a ministry “The Fore-runner Ministries.” They’ve invited me to their meetings a couple of times and it’s been fun.

So far we’ve had big plans that never pulled off. Without naming names, I have talked to some - so considered - great men of God who promised the world but never delivered. We planned great things but they fizzled out. My worldview has been changed and I now see life so differently.

I feel that taking care of my family is more imperative at the moment. If anything comes up that my family is not involved in or at peace with, that’s a pass. I am totally sold out on God and my number one disciples are members of my own household.

Thus Far has the Lord brought us, ‘Ebenezer.’ I Sam 7:12
