Gay! Not Gay?

Before I told my mother that I had converted to Christianity, I would often say, it would be easier to say I'm gay. Not that there IS something wrong with that, but this is not a rant about homosexuality. It's more of an exploration of why I chose Christ.

I have spent most of my life without a really strong father figure. I do have a father, he is just out of reach physically and emotionally to be of much use. He does have a strong sprite, but I often wonder which direction that it is going. But this is not a rant about him either.

What Jews and Christians share is G-d. The idea of one being who protects, cares for, and teaches his own. I'm not talking about the trinity, just G-d or God the Father. I have had to endure may things in my life, and while I have not had the worldly examples of strength, fearlessness, and courage that one gets from a father; I have had God! That still small voice keeping me calm in the lions den, feeding me in the desert, telling me to fear not only believe.

How could I not turn Christian!

I Still Don't Know What I Was Looking For...

About a year ago, and about a moth after the wedding, I went for a checkup with the liver docs. They said it was past time for a colonoscopy, so one was scheduled. We didn't get the results back until about the middle of August and they weren't good.

If you have been following the story you know what the results were. I had cancer.

While the focus of this blog was and is to tell the works God has performed in my life, life changes. I will continue this blog in what ever direction it goes, but the story of my life until now is pretty much at an end.

So to quote Bowie it's time to, "turn and face to strange changes."

A Year in the Life

As the story continues...

It would be about six more months before I would ask this cute Christian girl the BIG question and another year before the big day. While there are still many parts to my story left today is most important! For a year ago today Jennifer Ann Evans became Mrs. DeJonge!

And as the story continues...

We may have gone through a lot, but WE made it baby and I love more than ever!!!
