Welcome to my blog, or should I say to the ramblings of an old man. I doubt that my ramblings are of much value, but at least I have an opportunity to share them.  So, please be kind and humor me. If nothing else of value stands out in these thoughts, I hope that you at least sense the value I place on a daily walk with the Lord.  That walk is what has provided me with motivation and a sense of purpose throughout my lifetime.  My prayer is that you, too, are experiencing this direction and joy in daily living which is available to everyone who puts his trust in Christ.  So, thanks again for joining me.  Please don't go without leaving some comments here so I can get to know you better as our paths intersect today in this blog.

Merry Christmas

   The last few months have been times of learning to trust the Lord more fully and experience His daily provision during times of unexpected challenges. We have seen the best and the worst of rehabilitation facilities and miracles only the Lord could do.

     Dianne spent two helpful weeks in rehab following knee replacement surgery.  Barry had some unfortunate experiences during four of the five visits which he had.  He was finally released from Tandem Living, a good rehab, on December 20, but he still needs more healing and daily care.

     However, we do rejoice in the many miracles we have experienced. through this long and unexpected journey.  God is so good!

     God continues to bless our family.  He has giveus a second grandson, Luke has joined Malachi and his parents Dr. Daniel and Taylor Cetnar.  Uncle Dr. Joshua is doing medical research and his wife has had a good year teaching high school chemistry in New Jersey.  Noah graduated with a degree in optometry and is now working in two eye offices in Pennsylvania.

     Tim and Wendy's children are working on their college degrees. Chloe just finished her dissertation at the University of Maryland,      The last few months have been times of learning to trust the Lord more fully and experience His daily provision during times of unexpected challenges.

     God continues to bless our family.  He has giveus a second great grandson, Luke has joined Malachi and his parents Dr. Daniel and Taylor Cetnar.  Uncle Dr. Joshua is doing medical research and his wife has had a good year teaching high school chemistry in New Jersey.  Noah graduated with a degree in optometry and is now working in two eye offices in Pennsylvania.

     Tim and Wendy's children are working on their college degrees. Chloe just finished her dissertation at the University of Maryland,  Lexie just had her first book published at Susquehanna.  Brodie is completing his first year at Messiah majoring in microbiology.

      Because of all our time with doctors our times to minister have become very limited and Barry may be forced to give up his weekly blogs.  But we are very thankful for the many opportunities this has provided worldwide over the years.  God is so good.

        We pray that you have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a blessed NEW YEAR.
