“The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.”  (Proverbs 18:10) 

I decided to begin each daily blog entry with a Scripture verse.  I try to read a chapter from Proverbs each day and this verse was in today’s chapter.  That song is playing in your head right now, isn’t it?  Aren’t you glad to have a safe place?  Praise the name of the Lord! 

Kathy Wadkins and the other children’s choir workers are to be applauded for leading our children in a wonderful presentation of the Gospel through song/skit last night.  Each child did a really good job!  I know their parents were proud and rightfully so!  Thank you Kathy, workers, and children! 

The Lord blessed our morning services too.  Amanda Blackwell, Drew Crawley, Brandon Davis, Korie Fontenot, Tyler Hayes, Katelyn Jackson, Matthew Schlehuber, Kristen Whitehurst, Rhea Wilkinson, & Brianne Woods are our high school graduates for this year.  Dale Bosarge, Bridget Whalen Chambliss, Kristin Fontenot, Chris Taylor, & Josh Woods are our college graduates.  Brad Hutto received a doctor’s degree in physical therapy and Derrick Wilkerson graduated from seminary.  T. Garrett Wright received his doctorate in law.  (I think he told me he is now a DJ or something like that!)  Congratulations to all of our graduates!  

Jordan Smith, Tena Hovel’s nephew, had surgery on Friday and continues to have some complications following that surgery.  Pray for him.  Reb Nevin’s cousin, Dave Reilly, continues to have some serious health issues too so keep him in your prayers.  As always, pray for those folks battling cancer. 

It was a sweet/sweet weekend as the Lakers won (was there ever any doubt?) and the Celtics are done!  (Sorry Ethan, Bro. Benny, & Reb)  Of course, the bigger news is that the Red Wings beat the Blackhawks in game one of their series!  Of course, the sweeter news is that the Jacksonville State Gamecocks softball team beat UT twice (in Knoxville) to win their regional!  (I’m pretty happy if UT gets beat in any thing!) 

My good friend, Pastor Jack Bailey, is considering doing a blog.  If he does, I’m done!  His entries will be much more entertaining than mine!  (Pastor Michael Mason has a blog that he updates annually – what’s up with that?)  I would pay a subscription fee to read Pastor Jack’s blog.  I will let you know if, and when, he is up and running. 

I pray that you will have a great Monday with Jesus.
