Change-Haters could be the name of our collegiate autobiography. Anyways, this is just incredible. I resonated at every point. Hope that more people read it and take advantage of your wisdom.

I ho...Great illustrations and well written, Caleb. I hope others will discuss the many excellent thoughts you expressed, but I'd like to offer some further encouragement to you and your readers in a different vein. I remember Barb Walter once giving me parenting advice about raising a son. She said to keep in mind the way that the angel of the LORD greets Gideon when encountering him hiding in fear from the Midianites. Rather than voicing God's displeasure over his current struggles, the angel of the LORD greets him by saying, "The LORD is with you, mighty warrior." Mrs. Walter pointed out to me that the Lord saw Gideon, not as he was but as God knew he would be with God's presence and that parents must see their sons similarly--through faith in what God will make them to be. Your father and I have been pleased to see the man that God has been fashioning in you for your lifetime, including the last two years. We know that, like Gideon, God is with you, and you will be the mighty warrior that He created you to be.Marci Julinhttp://www.heartandmindministries.com/noreply@blogger.com
