I am sure that, as a child, I said that more than once. And if I didn't say it, I probably thought it. Well, I must have done it once too often because I have one of his medical issues.
I found out yesterday that I do have prostate cancer. I don't know the extent yet. We meet with the specialist next Friday at 8am. Luckily, they seem to have caught it early, so we'll see.
Next Monday is our 31st anniversary. Can you imagine having put up with me for that long? Or even half that long? I am certainly a lucky man and thank God for Kathie every day.
Have I been praying for patience lately? It certainly seems that God is working a number of things in my life. I know I am seeking His will, and will trust Him in all things, even this new development. Today's verse is I Sam 16:7 The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.
You know what? Maybe when I said I wanted to be like Daddy, God didn't interpret it as my earthly father? Shouldn't we all want to be like Him?

Randy and Kathie,
I'm so sorry to hear this news. Please know you'll all be in my prayers.
Thanks for the bible verses.
Love and prayers,
Linda Keller
I will be praying for you to have patience in your job search and strength as you fight the cancer. I guess I wanted to be too much like my father too, he passed on to me his scoliosis. But he also passed on many more important characteristics as has granddad.
