whata journey

I can't believe what God is doing down here. It is absolutely amazing to be experiencing the power and strength of the gospel among the troops I am serving.
It would be impossible to describe all that is happening. I have simply not been this amazed at what God can do since the first years of my salvation experience. That is a confession. I'm thinking this through as I write but I sense that I am in a very special place at a very special time and for a very special purpose. The grace and favor that God has been afording me is humbling. I feel an inexpressible joy at serving here even in the absence of those I love the dearest. His grace is amazing.

The services have increased in attendance in a very dramatic way. Every day it feels like I am in the right place at the right time. I don't know how to write this and not fear that you might think me boasting about myself. All of my training, all of my failures, all of my sucesses are coming to bear upon this premobilization. The religious ferver of the troops seems to be increasing. The trust they aford me is a privilege.

It is your tax dollars and the sacrifice of family and friends, that allow me to serve in this capacity and I am making it a goal to fulfill my calling and add to the exciting story that binds us all together, "HIS"TORY.

Blessings for now,
Pastor (Chaplain) Randal K. Miller
Captain, Battalion Chaplain
