Changes

Howdy. Since my last blog things have changed - a lot. I'm retired now. I've moved from South Texas to East Texas.

It's colder up here and wetter. The people are pretty friendly. We haven't found a church yet. It's hard after 38 years of pastoring the same church to make a move. Things aren't quite the same but I'm sure we will eventually settle in and find one.

My wife Karen and I have been busy connecting with new doctors, unpacking boxes, going back and forth to George West to fix up our house to sell, insulating and paneling our shed in the back yard so we can store our stuff in it. We voted last week but didn't know anyone up here to vote for so it was a short ballot for us.

To make a long story short, life is different now, full of change and it is not always easy. Im glad to know that amid all the change going on around us one thing remains unchanged. Hebrews 13:8 says "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."

So no matter how well or poorly I handle the changes in my life I have one thing I can depend on - Jesus and his eternal love that holds me tight. Like he said "I will never leave you; never will I forsake you." Hebrews 13:5.

Y'all have a Great Day

  1. Just read a note this morning in my Bible, from your final sermon here. It said, no matter how much things change, the message of the gospel remains "gloriously monotonous." Good one.
