Taking it back a year for this post. In the summer of 2024, Oakley played a show with some friends in our small hometown. His Great Pap came to watch, and I had completely forgotten I had taken a photo until I found it on my computer this past week. Great Pap passed away earlier this year, and seeing this image was such a sweet memory for us and a little glimpse of God's glory.
This season hasn’t turned out like we hoped, but I see God’s glory in the way this kid plays every time he steps onto the field. His perseverance through challenges reflects the faith and grit that can only come from God. With integrity, heart, and determination, he gives his all and never stops. In two weeks, he will play his last game under the lights on his home field. Senior year is passing far too quickly.
