I have to admit that as I read this book as it was being written, I had to stop and ask myself several times, Where was I when this took place? It seems that all I remember is that Kevin is my brother and I thought we just had normal everyday lives and everyone lived as we did.
I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus..
I believe Paul speaks of Persistence in Philippians 3:1-14: Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before.
With the right attitude, you will prevail.
The message of Kevin\'s personal testimony is clear.
This is about knowing the will of God and having faith to step out and accomplish that will.
This is about having a goal or desire and taking risks to fulfill that desire.
This is about being persistent.
This is about an attitude that each of us needs to strive for no matter what our status in life.
The story you will read isn\'t just about Kevin.
The Lord knew exactly who to put in Kevin\'s life at exactly the right time to carry him through what he would face at that particular time.
Persistence isn\'t just a factor in those who face great challenges in life, it\'s also a factor for those who are called to help others.
Kevin is not the only person throughout those years that displayed a persistent attitude.
But even then I knew and looking back now I can realize the persistent attitude Kevin displayed.
Living through it and now seeing it all as in the past all of those early years just kind of blend together.
I have to admit that as I read this book as it was being written, I had to stop and ask myself several times, Where was I when this took place? It seems that all I remember is that Kevin is my brother and I thought we just had normal everyday lives and everyone lived as we did
