A new day, a new location. How quickly the days go by and so many experiences, conversations, new acquaintances, memories.....on and on. And through it all the time moves inexorably on not stopping when we want it to slow down to enjoy a moment longer, or speeding up when we want something to be over. Time is one of the many parts of life we can't control and is better left in the hands of God. It's hard to believe that Karen has already driven over 2300 miles (I've done about 4 feet), we have spent all 22 nights in the same bed and are being blessed so abundantly by the the things we have seen and even more by the people we have met. It would take volumes to relate all that we have encountered and the stories we have shared. If I mentioned all the names we have written down, it would go on and on.....like the time. We pray a lot. We try to share and encouage to listen more carefully, to learn from what others have done and pass on what we know. In all, we give glory and thanks to Jesus and seek to make that the primary message we convey in our words and deeds. Without trying to make this a complete prayer list, I pray for Mike and Linda, Sherman and Jean, P Randy, P Walt's daughter, Paul, Alan who served in Cu Chi, Renee and Angel, Bill, Bill and Linda, Gordon, Carl, my new friend John(Monte) from Anh Khe, Betty, Fred and Arnette, Mac from Mountain Green, Jose, Les, my brother Phil and sister-in-law Sharon, Julie and Elliott, and names of others we have met: known to God. Bless them and keep them, let your face shine upon them and give them peace. Praise God. We press on in Your service.
