Hey Rodger,

Thanks for sharing that remarkable story.  With that personal history you could have easily turned into an impatient and bitter old man.  Thank God for all His grace.

be blessed

Hi Rodger,

I think you got to see the worst from a lot of people, it sounded like it was a really hard life.  I marvel at what some have to endure, but it's good to hear your life is better, and you are enjoying your family now.
Stay strong in Him  :)

mercy, peace and love
Kat

Glad to hre of your success, yesum back in the late 80's they capped alot of oil wells and ceased drilling.  So the need for my tech map skills were not in demand, so off the college i went.

hi rodger and john,
i just wanted to respond to both of you because each of you have been in the oil field industry.  per my post written a little while back called "my story" my husband currently works in the oilfield industry (as a mud engineer).  he actually worked in the same position for a different company in the late 80's also, but got out of it when it all kind of crashed during that period.  he became a school teacher for 10 yrs, then went back into the oilfield work about 4 yrs ago.  in the late 80's he was working internationally in the north sea.  when he went back into the oil industry 4 yrs ago he started out working domestic, mainly in texas, but he said his goal was to go back to working over seas. he has been back working internationally for a little over 2 yrs.  at the end of this past december i found out that he had met a woman while working in mauritania, africa, and that he and she started having an online, webcam internet affair since last november.  i actually walked in our computer room early one morning in december and caught him online with her.  the reason i am writing to you both is because i want to tell you how blessed i am to know that not all oilfield workers are sleazy, abusive sex fiends who have no reverence for God.  my husband is an agnostic, which has nothing to do with his being in the oil industry.  however, after finding out about his affair, and after having had to deal with his chronic online pornsite visits and ongoing sexually implicit emails from other oil field buddies, i had a discussion with him in which he told me that all the oilfield people he worked with did the same things.  i said surely there were some who did not engage in all the temptations to lust, and he assured me that they all did, whether they admitted it or not.  so, even though i do not know either of you personally, and do not know what temptations you may or may not have had to deal with in your years in the oil field, i am grateful to know that there are some in the oil industry who know and love God. 

anyway, just wanted to share this with both of you. 

your sister in Him.

I very much appreciate your story, Rodger, and am so glad your life is much better now.  I indeed look forward to your photos and poetry.  You have my prayers on your chronic pain.  Thanks for your humorous presence here at the forum!  :)

May God continue to bless you, 

Janice
