I'm not much of a history or war book fan... so it took me a little bit of reading / scanning through this book before I WAS HOOKED.
[Medal of Honor recipient, Gary Beikirch's story as told by is Marcus Brotherton]
is a good book.
I was relatively young during the Vietnam years, but while I was reading, I just kept thinking of a cousin who was in the service during that time...
[I wish I had asked him more ...]
As I finished this book I couldn't help but think about how awesome our God is...
and how He can direct us to many things [a cave?!] as He's leading us to Him...
He is everywhere... in scripture, of course,
but also in nature when we learn to see God everywhere...
and so many times I have to be like Gary and say,
"Okay God, if we're going to get through this, then we need to do it together.
The only way...is by giving everything to You. Whatever you want, God -
that's what I want to."
Sometimes a hard prayer to pray...
but oh what peace comes with this complete surrender.
Note: I was given a copy of this book from the publisher [Revell Publishing] for review purposes. All opinions are my own.
