FOREWORD
My beloved companion, my children, and others of God’s dear children are largely responsible for this book being in print today.
It has been a problem to know what to leave out and what to put in. I have endeavored to include that which might be of interest and inspiration both to young and old. For all its flaws I take the blame. For that which proves a blessing to our readers, may God be praised.
My prayers go with this book that every reader may be blessed of God, and that in that “better country” we shall mutually share our experiences of God’s marvelous grace.
His and yours for the “Other Sheep.”
