"Thanks very much for your prayers"

Oh, Conor - it is part of life, to pray for those we care about. I hope you will let us know what time your surgery will be next Wednesday, so we all can be praying for His hands to guide your surgeon's hands. (((HUGS)))

Meg posted something on the Texas Board. I hope we hear something soon.

I sent an email to what I think is his email address. I’m praying we hear something soon.

Thank you, M!

No one responded..I am thinking it could be that Dubya is in the hospital and lacks internet access..

Prayers continue...I am very concerned.

Enjoyed the quotes and poems. Sad how casually many react to animal mistreatment. IIRC, Obama praised the Eagles for giving Vick a second chance and the owner of the Colts did likewise. Why care about this sociopath?

Free To Choose
October 8, 2011

When it was learned that the biggest football game of the 2011 season was scheduled to be played on Yom Kippur, the student government at the University of Texas petitioned school officials to change the date. They said it was unfair to make Jewish students choose between the classic football rivalry with Oklahoma and observing their most important and sacred holy day of the year. But the date was not changed. Even in societies where people have religious freedom, difficult choices are still required of every person of faith.

Daniel demonstrated the courage to obey God no matter what the consequences. When his political rivals set a trap to eliminate him from their path to power (Dan. 6:1-9), he didn’t challenge the law or complain that he had been wronged. “When Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went home. And in his upper room, with his windows open toward Jerusalem, he knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days” (v.10).

Daniel didn’t know if God would save him from the lions’ den, but it didn’t matter. He chose to honor God in his life whatever the outcome. Like Daniel, we are free to choose to follow the Lord.

What freedom lies with all who choose
To live for God each day!
But chains of bondage shackle those
Who choose some other way. —D. De Haan

You can never go wrong when you choose to follow Christ.

Read: Daniel 6:1-10

He knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days. —Daniel 6:10

Bible in a year:
Isaiah 30-31; Philippians 4

Thank you for your prayers for me and for everyone you are praying for. I join you in prayer for those you mentioned and any others on Amy’s that we may not know about. None of us could make it “without prayer.”

I pray that some miracle will let us know about our wonderful friend, Dubya! I’m missing the smiles and laughs that he brought us every day, (even when he wasn’t feeling well.) What a good man he is!!

[jaycee]

Thank you, Jane! Appreciate that!

[jaycee]

What precious kittens, Kitty! Thank you! Wishing you a peaceful Saturday/Caturday! (and pain-free!)
