About Me
- Lance Dustin
- I have been married to my wife and hero (Stage 4 Breast Cancer Survivor) Stacy for 23 years. We have raised three awesome son's. Together Stacy and I have learned that true love can ONLY be tested through time. True Love is tested through hardships, boredom, and pain. True love has to whether through life's busyness, while withstanding the pressures of Job, family, and home, middle and old age. You determine whether the LOVE you have is true over time. Respect each other,encourage each other, and serve each other minute by minute, hour by hour...As time alone will tell!

Daily Word
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, “for your sake we are being killed all the daylong; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” Romans 8:35-36. The ease with which Paul uses the phrase “the love of Christ” interchangeably with the “love of God in Christ” testifies to his underlying assumption of the identity of essence between the Father and the son. Paul’s appeal to Old Testament Scripture indicates that suffering is not an unexpected novelty for God’s people. But in Christ such sufferings become stepping stones on the pathway to glory. As Followers of Christ His Word never promises us the luxuries that this world has to offer. Victory in this life is not achieved through living a happy go lucky self pleasing life in the flesh. Everything that you walk through is ordained by God for His purpose, and to draw you closer to Him and bring Him glory. Both happiness and victory in this life are found through faith, obedience, and glorifying God through whatever circumstance is set before you.
