A Path Through Fall

When it is going our way, we do what is called for the way it needs to be done, when, where and how it needs to be done. When it is not going our way, we do what is called for the way it needs to be done, when, where and how it needs to be done. Nothing stops what is called for from being done in the right way, in the right place, at the right time. We are here to do what is called for no matter what. Whether we feel like it or not. Whether we want to or not. Whether we stand to gain anything from it or not. Because it is called for. And it is the Way.

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
