You Have Me is the inspiring, Christian memoir of an average man, who while being buffeted by the storms of life, runs head-long into the power and very presence of Almighty God. Through these pages the author reveals one man's testimony of the faithfulness of our Lord. It shows that God is truly not a respecter of persons but desires to use His children, who will be obedient to Him, in fulfilling His mysterious and eternal purposes. This is not a book about Bible theology or interpretation. But rather, it is a lifetime account of one man's trials and misfortunes. By reading of his grief, passion and subsequent victories, one can take hope in his/her own life that God is readily accessible and holds the answers to all of life's problems for those who will call upon Him. The writer grew up in Kansas City, Missouri and after high school moved with his family to Springfield. He graduated from Drury University with a Bachelor of Science degree majoring in Psychology and Business Administration. His first job was with a hometown bank and after graduation moved into industry. After 18 years in business he felt a call on his life to fulfill a season of service for a national children's institute and later as business manager for a large church and Christian school. He is currently president of a non-profit agency called Christian Senior Ministries and is an administrator with the Southwest Missouri Office on Aging, supervising six area senior centers. Larry lives with his wife, Carmen, at Table Rock Lake near Branson, Missouri. The highlights of their lives are the many children and grandchildren who come to the lake to visit.
