Finding Malone

A single gift from a seemingly distant and unloving father sparked a journey of discovery. It was an inexpensive gift of an old WWI era army helmet. A helmet that saw action in WWII, not WWI. It was a doughboy US Army Helmet that held eyewitness secrets of the bloody sands of North Africa, the gritty landing of D-Day, the frozen Battle of the Bulge and the ultimate triumphant entry into Adolf Hitler's Alpine Wolf's Lair. A.J. Malone's helmet was more than just a gift. It was the piece that tied Dennis together to his father. The piece that helped rekindle a relationship grown cold from years of neglect. Finding Malone weaves together the tale of discovering who the helmet belonged to, and discovering the true nature of his father; the man who gave the gift to Dennis. This is the true and powerful story of a father and son overcoming unexpressed love, deep personal disappointment and ultimately hatred, through a single and unplanned-for magnificent act, anchored to honor - and the subsequent restored hope and fresh forgiveness that came as a result, healing their relationship and bringing them together as best friends for the last 19 years of the father's life.

<p>Her name is sweet - Cocoa - and she's often that. She's a lover and a licker. She can also be rude and unruly. Self-focused and crude, she attempts to lick her backside and tries to lick my face - often succeeding at both. She thinks she can do things she simply cannot - and she never tires of continuously trying. It's insane. To make it worse, my dog is blind - stone cold sightless. Yet, she chases other dogs to dominate them and she snarls when a wagged tail would be appropriate. She thinks the world around her is hers, and hers only; she regularly refuses to play well with others. Wag more, bark less? Not always. In short, my dog reminds me of me. I've learned a lot about how I blindly treat God from her. And how I should treat others through compassion and vulnerability. It is a painful lesson. My hope is that this devotional on devotion encourages you.</p>
