Me Again

Hi,
It's been quite awhile since I signed onto this web forum. I am glad to see so many of you doing so well. Amie, Paige, Barry, Nancy, Thom, and so many others - I'll get around to you.
For those who don't know me; I was a member here before - a little more than a member. The problem was, although I thought that I was ready to "Talk Grace," I wasn't. I acted like an ass, and it cost me. I chose to travel another road, apart from my friends. :o The good news is that my friends found me again: first Davo, then Paige. After awhile Amie and Nancy got back in touch with me. Then Ozark. :D
I come here in humility - God help me walk in humility. I think that I am ready to talk grace. God have mercy on me.
For those who don't know - I am a husband; a father of 4 grown children all living away from home (plus 2 daughters-in-law and one son-in-law), and 4 little children (3 of whom we adopted). I also have 4 foster children in my home. I work as a Foster Care Worker for a private agency, and do some counseling on the side. Most of my caseload is made up of teen boys, but I recently got back a case of young 'uns that I had transferred to a co-worker who got himself fired. So, I got it back; until they hire a replacement for my co-worker.
I pray that whatever I share may be a help to someone; and what I read may be a help to me. I am grateful for Paige's invitation to "come home for the holidays." It's good to be back - I hope that my time here will be beneficial.
