Duane, I do sense that you are hurt over this issue. Lets pray for you and your wife. You are both special to me and to God. Can we put you in the "hot seat" and lay hands on both of you?
Lord Jesus-we bind discouragement and anger and cast them from our brother and sister, in Jesus name. We ask for a blessing in their lives and thank you for them and their involvement in Rangers. Let them know that it was not in vain. Send one of their "boys" to remind them of the important work that they have done. Duane -I still have and use some of the stories that your you and wife have shared with your boys-ones like "Widow Maker", "To Kill a Wolf", "the Wounded Bear"and "A Weed or A Flower". You see you have touched and impacted many lives clear across the country and probably the world. Don't let Satan get you down now. Let God heal that wound just like the big bear needed that thorn pulled out. We love you and so does Outpost 207. Don't limp anymore. Bob Simons For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
