Title: The enemy of despair

Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. – 1 Corinthians 15:58

Despair is one of the fiercest enemies of conviction. It looks at us as fools and calls us to retreat and give up. It is a persistent knock on the heart of every man…especially those who have taken a stand.

Your stand may leave you feeling abandoned. It may cost you more than you accounted for. But it will be worth it. Your work for the Lord will pay off. You might not see the payoff today…but you will see it.

Real men take a stand in the face of despair.

Milo and his family currently live in North Carolina, where he is a staff Chaplain for MAG-14 at Cherry Point, NC. As a staff chaplain, he is responsible for the spiritual well-being of over 1200 marines and their families. He does this by participating in training events, deploying with the squadrons he covers, providing a constant presence of support and working with the command in facilitating general care and response in the face of family/unit emergencies.

Milo and Bethany have been in full-time ministry since 1999, and have enjoyed a wide variety of experiences and opportunities. In 2003, God brought Andrew into their lives, and in 2005 Olivia was the fourth addition to the family. Milo has stated repeatedly that God’s greatest tool in shaping his theology, philosophy of life and walk with Christ has been his family. Woodworking, riding his motorcycle, movies, camping, and time with his family are some of his favorite things to enjoy.
