"AND LO, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS"

Matthew 28:20


One morning I stood on the bluffs overlooking the coast at Camp Pendleton. I spied an amphibious naval vessel just off shore. As I stood watching, it came into full view, then disappeared as the early morning fog came and went. The ship was always there, but it was only visible part of the time.

It spoke to me of the reality of God's presence. The truth is God is always there, but our changing moods affect our ability to see. It's good days and bad days again, or would you believe, it can change moment by moment. In the times when vision is less clear, it's truly faith that helps us see and enables us to believe enough to keep trying.

So, live by faith. Trust in the Lord and keep looking ahead. God is with us in the confusion of life.

Very nice website....I knew you were involved with them, but didn’t know you were actually making them yourself. Little mixers are such a good idea.

I got finished a bit early. Both parties were done by 11 PM, instead of midnight. Went to the office and finished the paperwork for the shift.

There were a few that had one or two too many beers, but they had designated drivers. Off to bed for me. See you tomorrow.

"Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began." -from THE BIBLE: Acts 3:19-21
