Figuring out His Reason

I can hardly believe it has been almost 2 years since my last post here.  A lot has happened since then.  God continues to lead me down wonderful paths and has blessed my family with health and security and for this we are so thankful.  This year has been interesting as God has led me back into personal flying.  He has placed some wonderful people around me and these folks have helped bring my passion for old airplanes back. Our 1946 Taylorcraft is back in the air once again. It is truly a joy to share flying with my wife, family, and friends.  We are looking forward to some more opportunities to fly in the coming months.

Also, this year my dad passed away. From him I have inherited the gift of aviation.  He taught me to fly and introduced me to the world of old airplanes.  And he used them to teach me about life. I couldn't be more proud to be Dad's son. His life was an inspiration to me and continues to provide direction as though God is using the legacy of my father to help me find my way.  There's more to the story and I am beginning to see where God is taking me through this journey of life.  I am realizing that he is keeping airplanes in my life for a reason.  So now.. my job is to let Him use me and these airplanes for His purpose.  Stay tuned as we seek to figure this out!

My prayer:  Lord, I pray that you will speak to me and I will listen.


Scripture: 1 Samuel 3:10

  ¹⁰ The LORD came and stood there, calling as at the other times, “Samuel! Samuel!”

   Then Samuel said, “Speak, for your servant is listening.”
