Contemplations of a simple kind...

I am sitting here, gazing out at the back woods and Big Creek, serenaded by the flora and fauna, overwhelmed with the beauty of God and His fatherly presence.

If you haven't guessed by now, I am not in Kansas anymore, that is Glen Ellyn, but rather in Oz, or shall I more accurately state: Cedar Rapids... I do have my very own ToTo, that is, his name is Bounder. Alas, I am staying with some great friends of my folks, Mike and Vicki and their son, Zion (12) at their homestead in Iowa. I am here for at least 3 months, possibly longer pending my temporary work contract with Alliant Energy (the equivalent of ComEd back home).

I apologize for not keeping up with many of you as this news may come as a surprise. Having the internet has been a luxury for me the past few years, this is not an excuse for the lack of correspondence, but simply an explanation. Thankfully, my parents have given me an old laptop and my host has given me the use of the internet. So, I am wired! Thanks be to God for the blessing of wireless communication, now if only He would send an email ever so often :)

But that is just it, I want to share with you all how God is blessing my life in ways an email cannot touch. In the coming months, I will be posting on this blog the many great adventures ahead of me. Please keep in mind, I am new to this whole blogging bit, I am not promising anything mind blowing... just contemplations of a simple kind.

Thank you for stopping by...

Peace,
