"Pictures Worth 1,000 Words"

In one week, Christmas Day, it will be ten years since my dad died.  We had a very, very painful relationship, and I loved him very much.  That's Dad on the left and me on the right...I deliberately chose old photos of us that express the alienation that was between us. I also deliberately chose photos where I was older than he was.  These are "Pictures Worth 1,000 Words," at least to ME they are....pictures which express things I feel.

The thing that pains me the MOST about my father right now is that he went to his deathbed rejecting the Lord Jesus Christ as his savior.

THIS blog you are reading is mostly  PHOTOS, but I wrote a short book about my dad which expresses a lot of the pain I feel IN WORDS.  Here is a link for a free preview of the ENTIRE BOOK, which was written in 2010, when this photo of me was taken.  Just cut-and-paste the link below in your browser, and when the book appears, put the mouse on each page to forward it to the NEXT page. I hope this book helps someone ELSE struggling with the pain of "losing the lost," even as God's Word helped ME.
