“The Order of The Sheepdog”

November 12, 2013 by Greg Lucas 6 Comments

"Sheepdog" That’s what we call men in our family who watch out for the weak, the fatherless, the destitute, the orphan and the widow—men born with Psalm 82:3-4 tattooed on their hearts.

  Someone recently asked me how I deal with people who stare at my severely disabled son in public?

I try to maintain that gospel attitude when glances become stares. Deep inside I realize every stare is a thought, perhaps a question that … [Read more...]
