“Do your best to come to me quickly, 10 for Demas, because he loved this world, has deserted me and has gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia. 11 Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, because he is helpful to me in my ministry. 12 I sent Tychicus to Ephesus. 13When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, and my scrolls, especially the parchments. 14 Alexander the metalworker did me a great deal of harm. The Lord will repay him for what he has done. 15 You too should be on your guard against him, because he strongly opposed our message. 16 At my first defense, no one came to my support, but everyone deserted me. May it not be held against them. 17 But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. And I was delivered from the lion’s mouth. 18 The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.” (2 Timothy 4:9-18)

Since my father died when I was 3, other men in my life have come through to be the one’s I go to when I am defeated. My high school football coach, an old family friend who has known me since I before I was born, and his son who has been like a brother.

I haven’t had a trial in a long since my divorce; in which I just totally surround myself with Godly friends and made many new ones. I get godly counsel from many folks, but if I was hit with something hard I would go to my buddy Joe, then to our mutual friend Dave. It is awesome to have many godly friends around everywhere I go!
