What's up everybody!
I'm alive and kicking and "having more fun than I should" (a quote stolen from one of my best friends and Ministry partners, John Brennan). I can certainly say that the world looks a lot different since my diagnosis...waking up in the morning and hearing the birds singing, baby Dalaynee running around the house and all the sounds of the world around me hold a whole new meaning! Since this is my first entry in the Nordsville blog, there are a couple of things I'd like to say...
Needless to say, I've been involved in ministry for over 14 years and I will continue to serve to my full capacity as long as I am able. The prognosis is promising as you can read in previous posts.
Thank you for all your prayers, and I also want to thank my place of employment, Cosco Fire Protection including Fred Kramer & John DeSousa for there awesome support.
Please lift my wonderful wife up in your prayers, because she bears a large part of this burden and helps me to stay positive. We continue to covet your prayers for healing and that many come to know the Lord through this journey. Please also pray that I am able to live life relatively normal during treatment. We are overwhelmingly blessed by our family, friends and church family!
In closing, as you go through your day completing needed tasks, I urge you to stop, look at the world around you, and appreciate life. Do your best to make a positive impact on the world, because none of us know the will of the Lord and what our future holds.
