“Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:32)
Please note that the church office will not open until 10:00AM this morning.
The best news to report this morning is basically a repeat of my second entry yesterday. Larry did well through his surgery. The surgeons got all of the tumor that they could. However, he was confident that the remaining tumor could be handled through other means in the future. I spoke to Judy following the surgery and she said they much like the hospital, the surgeon, and all that has taken place there thus far. It is possible that Larry could go back to his hotel room today but will need to remain in Jacksonville for several days for observation. Praise the Lord for this good news. Keep praying for Larry.
Again, Dana, Lisa and I are very thankful to each person who called, messaged, et cetera us yesterday. The support was pretty overwhelming. Dana is home and is literally “fat and happy!” We are sitting on ready!
Mark Hubbard sent me a message last night and nothing has really changed with Courtney. Just keep praying.
Evangelist David Miller’s son, Josh, has been having some really serious health issues ever since last Friday or Saturday. Of course this is Edna Glover’s cousin. Pray for Josh as the Lord brings it to your mind, please.
Yesterday was certainly a different day with the office being closed and us not having services. I went to the hospital early and then spent time in the office during the afternoon before going to visit Mark & Courtney. Our family did take advantage of the opportunity to share a meal together at a restaurant in Pascagoula. Probably our last “out to eat” meal before the Taylor family heads back to Guatemala so it was nice.
We have three tornadoes staying here right now and two more joined them last night. Man, I needed some Calgon, Tylenol and a sound proof room!
I am going to admit that it was pretty cold yesterday. How cold? Cold enough that I actually put a sweater in my car just in case. Was wearing a short sleeve shirt but decided I “might” need a sweater. Thankfully, it never got that cold.
I pray that you will have a great Thursday with Jesus.
