Comments: Dave,
The Lord brought you to mind today I prayed and checked the blog...as always an inspiration. I have a book recommendation: The Shack, by William Young. It will rock your understanding of God as He is manifest in Three. The Shack also wrestles with the timeless question: "Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain?". Let me know what you think!
Warmly,
Caroline

Comments: There is not a day that I don't think of you and your family, especially Kathy and say a little prayer for each of you. That home has known so much joy and yet, a lot of sorrow. I am so sorry that you have to endure the pain of not having your family, together in your home each evening. Your faith will see you through each day, I know, because it does for us.
