To Whom it May Concern:

To Whom It May Concern:

  Thank you for taking the time to read this letter.  I just wanted to take a minute to share with you what is going on in our lives at this moment.  This letter is more of a proclamation, whether you read it or not, it has done its purpose.

For the past nine months Janell and I have been walking through, what I can only describe as “preparation” (to stay positive!).   I believe God has been preparing us for something through this time, and I am beginning to see the purpose.  Through this time all we could do was TRUST God, and His plan for our lives.  We all go through tough times in our lives, and I honestly can say I would not be able to make it through this without my Father God, and my amazing wife, who both love me through it all.

 Today I write you encouraged because I am beginning to see the pieces come together.  We walk one day at a time, sometimes one minute at a time, and even a second at a time.  I would be a liar to say that this process has been so wonderful, because honestly it has been more like hell.  But the more time I spend on the ground, the more I realize that it is the exact place God wants me to be.   If the ground is where you find God that is where I want to be.   There is no other place I would rather be than in obedience with God, even if it makes me look like a fool.  My pride has taken a huge hit lately, when everything that I thought was important fell to pieces.  But I find rest in the fact that the truly important things in my life continue to grow stronger.   My marriage, my Son, my Family have all grown stronger, our love has overcome every obstacle.  Through our love God has created a foundation that is unbreakable, and this is why I say it has been preparation.

 I know God created me to do great things in this world.  I don’t say that prideful because He has created ALL of us to do the same.  What I didn’t know is the hell I would have to go through to prepare myself for it.  Is it worth it, definitely!  There is no greater joy or peace that comes from walking in obedience with God.  It’s a peace that is unexplainable, I don’t even understand it.  So today I apologize to you, for not doing what you think I should do.  I apologize for looking like a fool, and because you know me, it might make you look foolish too. 

 My life is not my own, it is God’s.  So today once again I proclaim to the ones I love, and the ones who have said they believe in me.  That on behalf of my family, we will not conform to the world, and we will not give up.  I tell you today that I choose to walk with God on the road less traveled.  I choose to not give up on Gods dreams that He has placed in my heart.  Today I choose LIFE, and I choose destiny.

 

As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord, just not the way you think!
