Travis


My son Travis is the root of my life, he makes me smile and I have learned a lot from him. Although Travis is not blood, I consider him as if he was; I would die for him in a heartbeat. It has been a blessing watching him grow up and boy does the time fly it is his 14th birthday and he is growing up fast. I remember when he was 4 yrs old and barely came up to my waste, and now he is almost as tall as I am. Just to give you an idea how tall that is I am 5 feet 9 inches tall. Travis is also very intelligent and one day dreams to be a successful chef and of course owning an expressive car and a large house, and if he puts his mind into it he can do it. I love Travis very much and I can’t wait to enjoy more years with him.

My Son
He’s a give that was brought by God to show me how a father should love.
He shows me the joy of life and the blessing of his love.
The strength and knowledge of unconditional love, and what it means to love someone so much that you will give your life to protect him.
My son Travis is a gift, a blessing, and a treasure.

Death

Death is something that can be tragic and can also be a beginning to a future. As Christians we know that death is just the beginning of our life in eternity with our Lord and Savior. With the unsaved it will be the end of eternal life with God. Thursday morning my Mom called to tell me that my uncle Robert passed way from lung cancer. Now I will admit that I was not very close to my uncle Robert, he did call on Christmas’s to see how we were doing and to tell my brothers and me that he loved us. What my Uncle’s passing made me realize that life is not something that you mess around with, God has a plan for all our lives, and it is up to us to follow that plan. My family was the first that came to my mind when I was told; all I wanted to do was spend time with them. Life is short and we are just passing by until we meet again in Heaven.

Thankful Thursday.......Wife

I want to dedicate this thankful post to my wife Heather. I am thankful to God for bringing her to me because she is smart, beautiful, godly, trustworthy, loving and strong. She has shown me how to find myself and most important the path back to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. If it wasn’t for Heather I would be lost and surrounded by darkness with no light at the end of the tunnel. There is a nickname that I have for her because I feel that she is a gift to me from God so I call her my Angellove. She is the love of my life and an angel that was sent down from heaven just for me. God designed her especially for me thank you Lord for a beautiful creation, my wife Heather.
