I fully intend on telling grandchildren the story about this tree, the lessons, and the love it represents.
Do not go it alone.
βFor God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.β - 2 Timothy 1:7
βBen, I bought you a survivor tree to plant WHEN you come home.β
One of my dearest friends bought me this survivor tree when a lot of people told me my life was over. Today I planted it in my front yard. It is the first thing I will see every day I come home.
Today marks 1 year that I've been home.
Praise God for my wife and each of you who have supported us through the years. Y'all made it possible for me to come home.
We're doing well. The future is full of opportunity. There is a lot of work to do.
Hold fast to what is good.
(This was the first picture taken when I came home. Somone who recognized me from the news paid for our meal.)
Please keep the brave officers of the Memphis PD in your thoughts and prayers as three of their officers have been shot this morning. One paying the ultimate sacrifice.
The War on Cops in America continues to rage with record numbers of police officers being shot. When will our country, our elected officials, our leaders, our communities, our neighbors, rise up and say No More!
When is enough, enough?
The court of criminal appeals reversed his conviction and the shady, agenda driven DA Rob Broussard is going to try to prosecute Ben again?
