“Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.” (Psalm 19:14 KJV)

Today’s Bible reading:  Deuteronomy 3-4

Pretty cool when a guy sends you a message on Friday night to tell you that his wife just prayed to receive Jesus as her personal Savior!  Who?  Stay tuned!

Thank you to each person who has joined me in praying for Carla Kyser.  Lisa and I spent some time with her yesterday.  She messaged me last night to say that the first report to come back was actually better than the doctor expected!  Can someone say “God?”  I was wallowing in sadness last night and thinking about what the doctor said when God reminded me of Who He is!  I believe in prayer!  God answers prayer.  I appreciate Donald Butler placing one call that has three hundred churches praying for Carla.  Do we believe “Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever?”  If so, let’s call on Him to work a miracle.  He can!  Carla sent me these words last night – “trusting and believing!”  Me too!

As a matter of fact, I am calling the church to prayer for Carla and others.  Tomorrow morning at 7:45AM and then again at 10:15AM we will enter into a time of prayer before the respective services begin.  The altar will be open.  The music will be playing.  We will do the same at 5:45PM before the evening service.  I am asking our deacons to be present and to join me in leading this prayer time.

Ruby Gulley was discharged from the hospital yesterday.  As I figured, she has no idea that I visited with her each day since her surgery.  Hilarious!  Glad she is doing ok.

Miss Jimmie Hall has been moved to a rehab facility.  Pray that she can now begin to make progress in her recovery.

Linda Green’s sister, Shirley, was discharged from the hospital on Thursday.  She is requiring around the clock care but is at home.

Zach Huhn leaves this morning heading to New York City for a week long mission trip.  Pray that goes well.

Charles Suthoff will have a heart cath next Tuesday.  Charles is trusting God!

There will be a celebration of life service for Raymond Wilkinson’s Uncle Bob on Tuesday morning in Kennesaw, GA.  Pray for that family.

Spring forward one hour tonight!  Do not forget!

We will receive a love offering in all three services tomorrow.  This offering will be used to replace the roof of the CAB.  Pray and give!

I sent a message to Larry, Curly & Mo asking about the soccer games scheduled for today.  Have heard nothing from them so I am clueless!

Need one of our rain watchers to give us a reading on how much rain we got yesterday?

Was convinced Alabama would not beat UK last night in basketball.  The officials were the difference in the game!  No, not the game officials.  The league officials for putting Bama in a game against UK – what were they thinking?  UAB vs Bama in the Bayou La Batre Civic Center!  Rex Looney is going to sing the national anthem to begin the madness!  It is going to be awesome!  Be sure and say a word of thanks to Coach Collier for making this happen!

I pray that you will have a great Saturday with Jesus.  Spring forward tonight!
