We\u2019ve come to the end of another school year so this will be the last writing for a while. A \u2018Doxology\u2019 is an expression of praise to our Father in Heaven. It is a beautiful thing to hear His children sing:<\/p>\n

Praise God from whom all blessings flow;
\nPraise Him all creatures here below.
\nPraise Him above, ye heavenly host;
\nPraise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"IMG_7414\"<\/a>We had two graduations this past week in our family. John walked across the stage as a fifth grade graduate. We are so proud of John and he is excited to enter junior high next school year. My favorite picture from Kenya could have been taken any day we were in the villages: John walking down a dirt path arm in arm with five or six African friends. I learn a lot about love from this eleven-year-old.<\/p>\n

\"photo\"<\/a>Taylor graduated from his Masters\u2019 program at Georgia State University with an outstanding grade point average. Of course Taylor and Emma\u2019s greatest blessing this year has been little Wilkes, who is already being spoiled by four grandparents who live nearby.<\/p>\n

I praise God for a year of health. We have tried to learn to \u2018seize the day\u2019 and to be grateful. The first week of June the doctors want to put me through a couple of major medical tests as they are always concerned about multiple myeloma activity. As always, Susan and I cherish your prayers.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll close with the \u2018Benediction\u2019 that God gave Moses to bless the children of Israel. May we live each day with the assurance of our Father\u2019s love.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace.\u201d Numbers 6:24-26<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
