Oh Rus.
Thank you for letting us know. I will be praying for you.
Father, please bless and protect Rus as he faces these medical tests. Please let whatever is causing discomfort to be minor. Please let him continue to share Your Word with us every morning. We ask this in Jesus Name. Amen

Thank you. A little scare with my blood pressure.
I am home now and all is well. It was 195/99 just a little stress in my life right now. The economy is so bad here there has been no work. Praying things bet better on that front soon.
I will be having a stress test this coming week.
Thank you all so much, my heart is filled with such joy.

Oh, how I hated to hear this when I woke up, Mr. Mayor. I was on late last night and your message must have shown up as soon as I left.
God be with you every minute. Please let us know as soon as possible. Prayers~~~
To: The Mayor
I just posted good wishes for you and then scrolled down and read this post. Thank goodness, you’re home. Thats a high blood pressure but it can happen under stress. And life is all about stress to most of us! God Bless You. Glad you’re home. We need you!
To: The Mayor
Glad to hear that you’re okay.
Good luck on the stress test, been there done that, twice!
And I did not even get a crummy t-shirt:-)

Good Morning The Mayor
Thanking God you are ok. Thankfully, with having these symptoms, you were smart and went to the hospital. Praying for your health, and praying for a less stressful situation for work.

A Breach In The Wall
The lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of lifeis not of the Father. 1 John 2:16
The 4,000-mile-long Great Wall of China was built to keep out invaders from the north. The first wall was constructed by Shi Huangdi, the first emperor of China, who lived between 259 and 210 bc. But in ad 1644 the Manchus broke through the Great Wall and overran China. They did this by bribing a general of the Ming dynasty to open the gates.
During the reconstruction of ancient Jerusalem, Nehemiah understood the acute danger posed by those who opposed the rebuilding of the citys ruined walls. So he commanded constant vigilance. Half of the workers were to stand watch while half rebuilt the walls (Neh. 4:13-18).
As Christians, we must be vigilant that nothing breaches our spiritual defenses. Even the most mature believer can never afford to let down his guard.
The apostle John warns us of enemies from three quarters. He identifies them as the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life (1 John 2:16). These enemies lure us away from God and His Word and leave a gap for the enemy to sneak in.
Lets be alert to what entices us today. A lapse opens the door to sin, which in turn may develop into a habit that overwhelms us. Dont permit a breach in the wall.
It may not be some heinous deed
That chills our hearts and chokes the seed;
Its often just a trifling toy
That grabs our eye and steals our joy. Gustafson
The world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever. 1 John 2:17

Exodus 25-26; Matthew 20:17-34
