The Lawyer and the Farmer

The lawyer and the farmer
(My daddy and his huntin' buddy, Dan Walker, 1980s)

"Praise the Lord! How joyful are those who fear the Lord and delight in obeying his commands. Their children will be successful everywhere; an entire generation of godly people will be blessed!" (Psalm 112:1-2)


       As far back as I can remember, Dan Walker was my daddy's huntin' buddy - two men from the generation that, instead of "finding themselves", found a job. They served their country and their families. Their first wife was the only wife till parted by death. They feared God. Their children and grandchildren respected them.

      Last Friday, Raymond Freeman of that great, God-fearing generation entered eternity and saw the face of his Lord Jesus Christ. Well done, O man of God!

     May all who come behind us find us faithful!
