Dwayne called

Dwayne called last night.  They get one phone call a week on a land line.  Phone cards don’t work there.  He is fine and is going out on patrol daily.

Katie and I have put up 7 yellow ribbons on the trees in my front yard and 7 yellow ribbons on the fence.  Bobbie, his wife, will remove one on the fence every month that passes until it is time for Dwayne to come home.

The ribbons that are tied around the trees will be taken down from one tree every month and added to a tree that serves as the symbol of the months Dwayne is serving in Iraq.

When Dwayne comes home there will be a tree with seven yellow ribbon on it.  Cool, huh.

Bobbie is a real champ and just tries to keep as busy as possible.  She is dealing with Dwayne being gone, working 7 days a week, and taking care of all that is involved in buying and building the new house.

Dwayne is truly blessed with her.

God Bless you all!

These are verses that give me great peace.  The Bible is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

“And Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever. “

Exodus 14:13

“When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the LORD your God is with you, who brought you up from the land of Egypt.

Deuteronomy 20:1

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”

Joseph 1:9
