Married to my wonderful, second wife since, as many here had watched as it happend, my former wife passed away in late 2021. Still being a leading, loving father to my four adult sons. I write things in these forums, sometimes day and night (when I can't sleep). Do LOADS of technical stuff as a Radar Engineer for a number of different types of jets...when not immersed in theological matters.
Outside of seeing my boys and sharing the Gospel, standing underneath a B-1 bomber when all four jet engines are running behind me while running tests is quite exciting, especially when one of the airmen in the cockpit decides to rev up the engines a bit to keep the equipment cooler...
Thinking upon the wondrous things of the Lord while reflecting on what I had shared in our house church last night with the group. I tried to share with them how revolutionary it is to experience the results of the Lord's answer to prayers for Him to give to me His Thoughts and His Ways, no matter how much higher they are than ours. The more of His Thoughts and Ways He gives to us, the more we see the vanity in this world and its things, as Solomon write. It drives us to being more heavenly-minded, thus causing the things of this world to fade even more into the background of importance, while magnifying the things of Christ.
This right here... I love you folks. I also enjoy watching great thinkers, shakers and movers in videos.
Umm, probably Rethinking Elders by Gen Edwards.
Pod who?
"I Then Shall Live" by the Gaither Band
Hebrews 7:11-13
