Sunday is Coming

Good morning,

Here at Kerrville, Texas, Johnson Creek RV Resort, God continues to surprise us every week. The park was rather empty last week but we still had a good turn out for church. Praise the LORD!

My sermon this week is on Fathers. Happy Father's Day to all you fathers. As I am preparing for Sunday I have been thinking of my father and some of the things he would say to me. I read the following story dealing with a disaster and the father looking for his son and I couldn't help but laugh and say that's my Dad.

Disaster Encounter*
"Oh, No!" he gasped as he surveyed the disaster before him. Never in his 40 years of life had he seen anything like it. How anyone could have survived he did not know.

He could only hope that somewhere amid the overwhelming destruction he would find his 16-year-old son. Only the slim hope of finding Danny kept him from turning and fleeing the scene. He took a deep breath and proceeded.

Walking was virtually impossible with so many things strewn across his path. He moved ahead slowly.

"Danny! Danny!" he whispered to himself. He tripped and almost fell several times. He heard someone, or something, move. At least he thought he did.  Perhaps, he was just hoping he did. He shook his head and felt his gut tighten.

He couldn't understand how this could have happened. There was some light but not enough to see very much. Something cold and wet brushed against his hand. He jerked it away.

In desperation, he took another step then cried out, "Danny!".

From a nearby pile of unidentified material, he heard his son. "Yes, Dad," he said, in a voice so weak it could hardly be heard.

"It's time to get up and get ready for school," the man sighed, "and, for heaven's sake, clean up this room."


This is funny, but I know my dad prayed for me and wanted the best for me. I also know my Heavenly Father wants even better for me.

Mat. 7:11 "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him!

If your father is still alive I pray you tell him you love him. For the rest of us, remember the good times.

LaVon and I are truly thankful to God for each of you. Thank you for your continual support and interest in our ministry by investing yourself in many ways as partners with us: by prayer, e-mails, phone calls and your financial gifts. Without any of these we could not continue what God has called us to do and that is to share the living water with the world through the RV ministry.

Have a great day, love you, pass it on.
Don
