Les' dad arrived last night. In his luggage is this Bible:
Bill received it after joining the Navy in 1951 when he was 18 years old. Nearly 66 years later it is as enduring as ever. Tucked in that Bible is a note from Grandpa McElhaney written in 1952 telling his youngest son to live right and honor the Lord, and that his dad would be praying for him.
Isaiah 40:8, "The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever." It is timeless!
