March...marching on!

Well, I did it again....Let another month march on without pausing to ponder what to publish. I guess it is not so much about the ponder as it is the pause! And for me, the challenge is finding the right clicks to even get to the posting point. Well, I am finally here, realizing I had better do so to get a March post on. So to all who might check to see if I updated, it's finally yes! I certainly like reading all of yours, and am afraid I am quite guilty of soaking up all you send, without sharing very much. So for the meat of this message and the point of this post,
a tale from the homefront:

So March has been madness, well, basketball, and lots of it: messes, and lots of them I am always trying to clear out ( with Richard even preaching on "Jesus in Your Messes!) ; meditating and mentioning all of you to the One who guides you and holds you in His righteous right hand;
reading from Pigs in a Taxi (African devotions) to the Patriach study in Genesis, thinking on an Africa trip and shots and preparations, planning for a West African event at church, family events in Wilson and Durham, and planning and leading the Associational Bible Drill. Leaving the Bible Drill and going to hear Anno Domini was special as we went from hearing the word spoken and shared by children to hearing it shared and sung in powerful and living testimony of college kids was awesome and a great blessing and reward.

Our God is marching on in the lives and love of his children. God bless you all, from the homefront to yours.
