Welcome to my blog!!

I have so enjoyed FB and blogging. I love reading others, friends, and younger people who are so good with words. It is my prayer that I be a servant to others. To lead them to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ is of chief importance to me. My work at the Cancer Center gave me many opportunities to do just that; the center was part of a Catholic institution that had ...."in the Spirit of Jesus Christ"..... in the Mission Statement. God gave me a boldness like never before. I also love journal keeping. I have several. The one I am currently using will run out before Dec. 31. I love it; it has a photo of the four grandchildren, Peyton, Paige, Reese, and Sully on it. Plus a Christmas greeting on the inside page. I keep sermon notes and daily stuff on those pages. Mike said, "Do you ever go back and read what you write?" Answer YES. Regularly.

Friends that are ill gives prayer bones a work-out

This is the day that the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. This week has not been the funnest for us. Our dear friend, Jack, had chest heaviness, flunked the stress test, and had triple by-pass on Friday. Alot to take in. So many people who love this family. All there to encourage and prayer for them. Their boys are like my own. I just love their little families. This family has taken us as part of their family for years now. God is good. Progress is being made. NO heart damage (Told you God was good!) But, we continue to pray for a full and quick recovery, for no pain or nausea, and for back home when God knows the time is right. My friend, AZ, is also in the hospital. She had a knee replacement that went not so good postoperatively. I love this lady. She and I used to go to town every Friday and have lunch and get groceries, after she played tennis and her little daughter and I ran around Danville running errands. My spiritual gift is that of exhortation. That means, for those of you unfamiliar, that I thrive on encouraging others to carry on as God would have them to do. Like a cheerleader of sorts. That's me. So, pray for me as I cheer for Jack and Linda and AZ and her husband as they go through these unusually difficult times. Have a good day. F.
