Up early with Sonny (he wants a bone) to watch the sun rise. It’s amazing. Sunrise makes me think about a lot of things: • The God who made it. • The hopes of people who today will bask in it. • The fears of people who will dread what will happen to them today under it. • The people who are just glad for its simple warmth and brightness. • The people who will labor under its heat. So much to think about and I am blessed to have the luxury to do so. Chief among my worries is the state of our nation. Will the sun continue to rise on us as a free, responsible, and exceptional nation or will we slip quietly into a self-consuming state of isolation that watches helplessly as the world sinks into a chaos that will inevitably visit our shores? I pray that God will find a way to use me to help rebuild our “walls” as He used Nehemiah. It is a prayer I have been praying a lot. I know many fine leaders I serve with and I suspect not one of them wants to be a viewer of events rather many want to shape them. At 63 I contemplate the final chapters. But I know there’s a lot of fighting to do. Just not ready to sit and watch. Guess I’m always going to be a combat guy…
