” A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.”  (Proverbs 15:13)

I firmly believe that life is way too short to not laugh “at” yourself and to laugh “with” others from time to time.  A merry heart can help get you through those “not so good” times like when someone throws the anchor & the rope overboard leaving you anchorless in troubled waters.  Maybe today we would all do well to LOL at least once! 

Wild Week ’09 is happening now with Dale & Karla Bosarge, John Vickers, & Bre Woods being joined by the 70 +/- folks from the Friendship family for the next four days.  Our group arrived safely yesterday afternoon.  Pray that this will be a time of spiritual renewal in their lives individually and in the life of our student ministry collectively.  I can’t say for certain but I would imagine Bro. Chris will be posting pictures on this site as the week progresses.  Or you can follow him on Twitter! 

The funeral service for Christy Wynn’s grandfather will take place this morning.  The visitation with the family will be held from 9:00 – 9:45AM at the Holder Wells Funeral Home with a graveside service immediately following in Gautier.  Pray for this family. 

The service for Miss Grace Taylor, Sonny’s aunt, was held yesterday afternoon.  The funeral service for Leroy Hill will take place this Friday, 6/19. 

Carla Kyser will have another chemotherapy treatment tomorrow.  Max Peacock is finished with his radiation treatments.  Gloria Morrison received her last treatment this Wednesday.  Pray for these folks and all of the others who are battling cancer. 

Would someone please tell Pastor Jack “my man just got tatooed four times by Kobe” Bailey that the Los Angeles Lakers are the 2009 NBA champions?  Are they the best team ever?  Is Kobe the best player ever?  Will they repeat next year?  Has Pastor Jack become a Lakers fan?  Will he be wearing his #24 jersey now?  So many questions! 

Apparently, Pastor Jack has decided to take the Pastor Michael Mason approach on this blogging thing which is post about once a quarter whether you need to or not!  I know that it is not a time issue with Pastor Jack as Joe David has told me that he, Joe, is doing the bulk of the work at DBC including Tracey & Mandy’s jobs! 

Deidra & Pam have posted GRACE blog entries over the weekend.  The Montgomery team is doing well.  Keep praying for them. 

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