DEAR NATE!
happy birth day! you were an great gift from God
on that 3rd valentine's day that God gave mom and I together.
what a gift you have been to us.
You are a comfort, a strength, a joy, a blessing from God...and
we are very grateful to Him for you.
may you (and I) ASAP be radiantly with Jesus!
prayer and the desire of my heart
is that we identify ourselves with Him
and suffer for His name.
Love, dad
ps. i had a bunch of insane ravings on here
but as often happens
when i read what i have written
after a day or two
i just shake my head.
only by His grace and peace
will i have peace when i look in His eyes.
until then..brokenness and agony.
i just want to be found in Him.
i reject just mental assent, 'belief'.
there must be DO,
there must be fruit.
believe obeys...
and i don't obey well.
massive failure...frail indications of having His Life
oh but He is so real
so surpassingly precious, loving, forgiving
yet also grieved, warning, gently guiding
sometimes forbidding, making impossible!
oh changeless One, please change me.
