Most of you who read this blog are aware that during the holidays, our family became aware of the fact that Sue's earthly father, Hal Herweck, Sr. had only a few days to live and actually died during those days. All who knew Hal were better for having that relationship. I had the privilege of paving the way for him to receive his high school diploma from Christian High School and he graduated with his granddaughter, Abbey Herweck LaRose. Usually Hal was the one serving, so it was a special for me to do something for him. We miss him, but we know in whom he believed and who was his Lord and Savior.
Sue and I spent most of the holidays and a couple of weeks after with cold, sinus, headaches wondering if we would ever get well. She finally did and is back in full swing writing in Nashville. For me, the battle continues, but I am feeling much better today. Because of feeling better, I decided it was time to blog again and thought I would begin by sharing a few quotes with you. Here goes:
"To solve any problem, here are three questions to ask yourself: First, what could I do? Second, what could I read? And third, who could I ask?"
Jim Rohn
In one of the many documents that came to Winston Churchill's way, a civil servant had gone out of his way to be grammatically correct and had clumsily avoided ending a sentence with a preposition. Churchill scribbled in the margin: "This sort of English up with which I will not put."
There is an old saying, "Whether you believe you can or you believe you can't, either way you're right."
"If you see your work only a job, then it's dragging you away from what you really want to be doing. If you see it as a calling, then it is not longer a toiling sacrifice. Instead, it become an expression of you, a part of you."
Dr. David Nevin
To his children when they went out for the evening, the father always said this:"Remember who you are and remember whose you are!"
Hal Herweck, Sr.
"The one thing I want you to pray for is this: That I will not take credit for the successes of these things whatsoever, because if I do, my lips will turn to clay."
Billy Graham
