The Walk of a Man: Begin of Beginnings

By James A. Thompson

Some events happen to us. All situations come, and we, oftentimes, are not prepared for them. The past, at times, haunts us; the present ties and tries us; and the future can become uncertain.

David sees so much of what happened in this communityloss of loved ones and so much unspoken hurt. Loss was out in the fields of life. The pleasures of that life and things that bloom can never answer to the call of help, yet help and hope were among them and visited them far and near.

The hand of God guided a man in his life in a time of great sorrow. The love of God flowed out and touched and drew them out of many troubled waters of the soul. Gods great love and presence led a man that loved God. He is by no means perfect in his walk, yet in him walks the real man who believes in who he believes and stands for who he stands for.
