Ron Powell Elder My wife Vickie and I will have our 50th wedding anniversary this October. We have both been retired from Intensive Care Nursing for 11 years. At about the age of 35 years old, I realized my decisions, my attempts to control life, really the entire value system by which I lived, was much more than incomplete but actually worthless. My, what peace with God, what joy, when I can surrender and be obedient to God. All Praise and Glory to God! |
