Bible in a Year:
Before they call I will answer.
Her doctor said her detached retinas couldnt be repaired. But after living without sight for fifteen yearslearning Braille, and using a cane and service doga Montana womans life changed when her husband asked another eye doctor a simple question: could she be helped? The answer was yes. As the doctor discovered, the woman had a common eye condition, cataracts, which the doctor removed from her right eye. When the eye patch came off the next day, her vision was 20/20. A second surgery for her left eye met with equal success.
A simple question also changed the life of Naaman, a powerful military man with leprosy. But Naaman raged arrogantly at the prophet Elishas instructions to wash yourself seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh will be restored (2 Kings 5:10). Naamans servants, however, asked the military leader a simple question: If the prophet had told you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? (v. 13). Persuaded, Naaman washed and his flesh was restored and became clean (v. 14).
In our lives, sometimes we struggle with a problem because we wont ask God. Will You help? Should I go? Will You lead? He doesnt require complicated questions from us to help. Before they call I will answer, God promised His people (Isaiah 65:24). So today, simply ask Him.
How complex are your prayer requests? What life problem can you offer to God in a simple prayer?
Dear heavenly Father, when life feels complicated and difficult, thank You for Your promise to hear even my simple prayers.
God bless those ready to “lay down their lives for their friends!”
Tomorrow the universal Church honors the great Apostles Peter and Paul who jointly walked the path of suffering and received the crown of Martyrdom in Rome on the same day in the first century.

This is a good story which is near and dear to me. My mother has kept a card for Father’s cause on her fridge for years. Dad’s not Catholic, but was Navy in “nam.
There are giants in whose footsteps we may walk.

Greetings to all at the Canteen!
To all our military men and women, past and present,
Howdy, Kathy.
I saw a few rain showers on the airport cam today. Did any of them run across your house?
Howdy, Mayor.
I enjoyed your radio show. Thanks for the link to it.
Howdy, luvie.
I hope you didn’t swelter too much today.
It was pretty toasty here and after a heavy rain storm this afternoon, it was a sauna outside. I stepped out to check the rain gauge and that was all it took to convince me that inside was the place to be. LOL
This is so emotionally touching; enjoy!

Yep, I’d say 98 was plenty toasty. Ugh! I feel for ya. And for the poor kittehs. It felt close to that here with the heat index. Tomorrow’s high is supposed to be around 94 with pretty good rain chances so the humidity will be up there again.
The heavy shower did a nice job of washing dust off of everything this afternoon. There’s just a tiny bit of dust still in the air but it’s not enough to bother us as far as breathing is concerned. Glad it didn’t stick around long.
That was so sweet! Even after 75 years, their love for each other is still there. It’s a shame they didn’t get to spend a little more time together but at least they got to see and touch each other again.
