TUESDAY, 9/8/15
Today’s Bible reading – Isaiah 1:1-2:22 2 Corinthians 10:1-18 Psalm 52:1-9 Proverbs 22:26-27
Spoke every so briefly to Rusty yesterday afternoon and learned that his maternal grandmother is doing a good bit better. She is supposed to be moved to inpatient physical therapy.
Bill Kendrick told me at church this past Sunday that Debbie had seen her nephew, Brian, on Saturday and had a wonderful visit/talk with him. She and Bill were impressed with how well he is doing. He still remains in ICU and has a long road in front of him to complete recovery but progress is progress.
Have not heard directly from Carla K but did hear that she may have been a little better yesterday. I certainly pray that is true and that today will be an even better day for her.
Keep praying for Eddie Whitmore, Becky Sellers, Lisa Thompson and all those battling cancer.
Kayla Hatcher will be having surgery this Thursday, 9/10. It is scheduled for early morning.
Prayer time tonight from 5:00 – 7:00PM in the auditorium. As always, this will be a come and go happening. Use the West side door to enter/exit. Since we did not have any activities at the church last night, I hope we have a really good number come and pray tonight.
There will be a men’s breakfast this Saturday morning, 9/12, from 8:00 – 9:00AM in the fellowship hall. I am told this is going to be a Spanish breakfast. What does that mean? Not sure. The men will meet in the fellowship hall and all men are invited and encouraged to attend.
How was your Labor Day holiday? I hope it was good. Mine was uneventful. I did learn something though – the Cracker Barrel in Escatawpa, MS is extremely crowded at 1:00PM on Labor Day! Wow! (I was able to purchase gasoline for $1.78 while in Escatawpa)
Bro. Jerry Hovel is on vacation through next Monday, 9/14. I do not know his plans but do ask that you not contact him in order to let him be off.
Lord willing, I will be using another vacation day today. I had this planned before Bro. Jerry asked to be off but it is not a problem as Bro. Kerry & Bro. Chris will both be available. I am in town and readily available, if needed in case of an emergency.
I only caught bits and pieces of the OSU/VT game last night so I am in no position to give much of an opinion. However, it seems to me that OSU is going to be very difficult to beat this season. I know VT lost their quarterback. Remember, OSU had about four or five guys suspended too. I will not crown OSU national champions just yet but do know they will be in the hunt. BTW, good for Braxton Miller on his return as he stuck with the program and had a great game in the second half.
I pray that you will have a great Tuesday with Jesus.
