“The discretion of a man defereth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.”  (Proverbs 19:11)

I have faults!  I make mistakes!  (Sorry, Rex!)  Follow me for a couple of hours (minutes?) and you will see clearly that I speak the truth.  However, I realize that I am just like everyone else as they have faults too.  Of course many of us believe as the bumper sticker says, “all of my faults are normal!”  I want to be a person of “good sense who can overlook a trangression or an offense” as the Amplified Bible states it.  Yes, I want to be forgiven but may God help me to be a forgiver! 

Christy Wynn will have surgery this morning and she is very nervous!  Pray for her as they will be removing a tumor and possibly more. 

Jordan Smith, Tena’s nephew, is supposed to go home from the hospital today.  The doctors now think he may have suffered a mini-stroke during his surgery.  Dawn Autin has been discharged from the hospital too. 

T. Garrett pointed out that his sister, Brittney Wright, also graduated from the University of West Alabama this year.  Brit got the looks and the smarts in that set of siblings!  Congratulations to Brittney!  She is a sweetheart!  Bryant High holds their commencement service tonight at 6:00PM. 

I received a number of personal remarks, voice mails, e-mails, and even comments on this blog yesterday.  Thank you!  (No one tried harder to reach me than Mark Mast & his family – thanks for the effort!)  I spent the day “working” and then my father-in-law graciously allowed me to work in his yard to bring the day to a close – something about his last testament & will being rewritten “if”!  As if that $50 is going to make a difference in my life – LOL!

I am envious of Brad & Daphne as they are in Ephesus & Patmos touring some of the sites known to us by the New Testament.  Wow! 

Someone gave some money this past Sunday to help the lady in Guatemala with her surgery and then someone else gave some yesterday.  Thank you!  The total cost of the surgery is going to be $625 and GRACE Ministries is going to make sure it is covered.  Lisa & I feel led to help in this situation.  If you want to help with this need simply contact me, call the church office, or place a contribution in Sunday’s offering making sure it is clearly marked “surgery”. 

The hospital is calling!  I pray that you will have a great Tuesday with Jesus! 

P.S. – The menu this Sunday will be ribs & crawfish!

    You will find no argument here – she got the looks the smarts and is horribly charming with a genuine kind heart.

  • I am so glad you invited the church to participate in helping the lady in Guatemala with her surgery. We as believers should do what we can to encourage others that are in need especially when He has blessed us so much!(this week’s SS lesson). Our church is so giving and caring and when there is an opportunity to serve the Lord in whatever way He places before, we always want to help. It is a joy to serve the Lord. Thank you Lord and thank you Jesus for your love that shows through Friendship Baptist Church.
