Here's to you

So I have been working at an indoor fruit stand/market, and I have come to realize how much I miss the values of my Christian guy friends...Sure, my co-workers are nice and funny, but they definitely do not have the integrity of "my guys", especially "my" IBEXers...

Tim waiting for everyone else to go eat before he would eat
Ry and Nate insisting that the girls sit before they did
Austin bandaging Colin's feet on the Dead Sea Hike
Luke and Tad passing out encouragement
Ryan Moore treating Sarah with kindness and gentleness
Jer creating entertainment and being willing to help
Paul being willing to tutor half of IBEX
Correll helping organize things
Chris playing with all the kids
Laney being ready to answer any questions
And the list goes on..............

To all "my" IBEX guys and "my other guys" (Garret, Nic, Adam, Shane, Kaleb, Paul, etc.), thanks for your integrity, humor, kindness, and maturity...I'm sure at times it feels like no one cares or recognizes your hard work to be men of God, so this is simply a thank you...

A man's steps are of the LORD...
-Proverbs 20:24a
What is desired in a man is kindness...

-Proverbs 19:22a

The righteous man walks in his integrity...

-Proverbs 20:7a

A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches...

-Proverbs 22:1a
