Take a deep breath. “Yes, Lord.” Then step out by faith. Walk into unknown waters. Enter cross-currents of something new.

No ordinary life
Pages torn out of old journals rest in my hands. Stapled together. Written by my father at 28 and 29. Newly arrived on the field overseas.
Entries penned in precise style. Possibly with the Parker ink pen I can picture in my mind. Dad’s writing instrument of choice for years.
He turns 90 this month. And this window into his thoughts over 60 years ago reveal the foundation of a life wholeheartedly committed to his Lord.
No ordinary life.

Everything
“Everything you have commanded us we will do, and everywhere you send us we will go” (Joshua 1:16).
No half-hearted maybes. Balking at the unknowns. Questions about personal safety.
No calculating anticipated losses.
Everything and everywhere.
No turning back.
