SATURDAY, 9/26/15

Today’s Bible reading – Isaiah 48:12-50:11 Ephesians 4:17-32 Psalm 69:1-18 Proverbs 24:5-6

Lisa and I visited Cynthia Cumbie’s family in the ICU waiting room last night.  Did not attempt to see Cynthia as it was shift change and she was not real alert.  She is not taking nutrition and they are at least talking about inserting a feeding tube.  (key words are “talking about” and not are “definitely” going to do so)  Pray for Cynthia!

Did not make any other visits yesterday nor did I hear from anyone else.  So, let’s just go with the “no news is good news” philosophy.

Regular schedule tomorrow morning.  The evening activity will be the memorial service for Bro. J.B. Kelley beginning at 6:00PM.  Nothing else.  For me, it is a matter of respect.  I hope many members of the Friendship family will attend this special service.

The security lights on the South side of the CAB are not working (subtle clue for an electrician to help us here.  We have the ladder and will buy the lights.  Just saying!).  I almost always park as far away from the auditorium as possible – trying to lead by example and leave the closer spots for older folks and guests (subtle clue for others to follow suit).  I parked there this past Wednesday night and by 7:30PM it was, as Pastor Terry Rainey says, “booger dark!”  I was almost to my car when it happened!  Out of the dark came this cough and a female says “hello!”  Startled me.  Proceeds to tell me that she had taken her husband to Auburn the previous Friday in order to have eye surgery but she ended up in urgent care with pneumonia.  I replied, “so sorry” while thinking “do they not have surgeons in Mobile?” Then she says, (remember it is booger dark) “can you come over here and pray with me?”  I said, “Nanette, you sound fine to me and I have a Bible study to teach!”  As she lunged toward me, I quickly got in my car and sped off.  Wow!  We have to get those lights repaired or replaced.  As I was driving away, I could hear her basically screaming, “we almost got married.  Does that not count for something!”  I may start having a deacon or Will Reynolds walk me to my car after each service!

Football predictions (for the record, I would have picked LSWho, Bama and San Diego State as the winners last Saturday)  – AU will beat State, Bama will beat ULM, Nebraska will beat USM and NCSU will beat USA.   Yes, I was at the game last week.  Yes, I was there when Bama lost to ULM, NIU, USM, et cetera.  Plan on going to the game today.  Lisa & I are taking a couple of ULM supporters with us.

Learned this week that Decker Terry is now a blog reader.  Decker & Martha live in Montgomery.  He played football at Ole Miss which is now known as the University of Mississippi Black Bears.  That puts our readership up to nine representing three places – South Mobile County, Madison, AL (Dr. Rex) and Montgomery, AL.  Is that cool or what?

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