Kevin's new adventure

The hardest part of beginning the new adventure is leaving family.  This Sunday I will attend Tyler's instillation service at New Life A/G in Bedford, Ky.  It is a privilege to get to go.  We were suppose to leave the country in January but was delayed.  All three of our children have gone through major life transitions in the last three months.  Cathy and I got to be a part of it.  It renews my trust in the sovereignty of God.  He is in control.  He knows what is best.  He is good and only does good.  It my belief in his sovereignty that gives me the courage to go.  God only has one will, a good, pleasing, and perfect will.  That is not only true for me but my family as well.  God calls us to sacrifice, to carry our cross.  It is part and sometimes central to the will of God but it is good.  It is for our eternal good. He does not have a good plan for me and a bad plan for my family.  And he does not have a bad plan for me and a good plan for others.  I will declare it again, He is good and only does good.  I must believe that to the core of my being.  I act on faith in the character of God.  God's character is the foundation of my new adventure.
