Tender Mercies

As I think and reflect on this past weekend about the passing of a good family friend Andrew Mihalo, who was in the Green Beret's and was killed Afghanistan fighting of my freedom and the freedom of others. I think of how many lives he touched. Especially my brother Stephen and my sisters Sara and Rachel. I loved hearing their stories of Andrew and how blessed they were to have him in their lives. I don't have any specific memories of him, just some photos here and their. A trip to Death Valley with the Boy Scouts and at the ice staking rink. I am guessing it was a youth activity for the church. Honestly I don't even remember beginning there, but I glad the photo was taken and their to share with others.



He seemed to be the protector and go get 'em to all from the memories of my siblings. It sad and disheartening to know that he is gone but so wonderful to know that we will see him again. I am sure he is fighting a bigger fight in heaven and is on the front line serving God and his kingdom.

As this news came we as a family were blessed with tender mercy that Rachel (my sister) will be bring a baby girl in to their family. Their 2nd girl! It is so wonderful to know where there is death, there is life also. That it is all part of God plan for us!
