“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 – Malachi 1-4

One of Caroline Ford’s sons, Bradley Cumbie, is in the hospital battling a staph infection.  Pray that the antibiotics are effective.

Sherry Schlehuber has a couple, Paul & Irene, from Oklahoma who are long time friends.  Irene is now on life support and is not expected to live.  Sherry asked us to pray for them.

Maria and her family will once again be spending the weekend with her mother.  Pray for Mrs. Hamilton.

Carl Ray Moulds has a friend, James, to whom he has been ministering.  James is battling cancer and has other issues too.  Pray for him.

I have prayed for Greg Boutwell this morning as he continues to have problems with his legs/feet.  He is basically homebound.  Would you join me in praying for Greg?

Men’s breakfast in the morning (Saturday) from 8:00 – 9:00AM in the fellowship hall.  All men are invited to attend.

FYI – our Hope Sunday (10/16) is coming together very nicely!  I appreciate all of the help Carla Kyser is giving to this special day.  BTW, if you are a cancer survivor and would like a) to be recognized in that service, or b) have reserved seating for you family and friends, please contact Carla or me no later than Sunday, October 9.  This will allow us to make proper plans.  We certainly do not want to overlook anyone in this most important area.

It is around 3:00AM as I type this entry.  Walked outside a few minutes ago and it felt awesome!  The temperature is either 57 or 58 (depends on your source) and it feels a bit like Fall.  The humidity is supposed to be pretty low tonight and tomorrow.  I thank the Lord for this blessing!

During the lunch hour yesterday I was able to attend “grandparents day” at Breitling Elementary.  Translated, “grandparents day” means book fair which means give your grandchildren money to buy books!  What ever happened to “grandparents day” being simply sharing a meal at school with your grandchildren?  I have contacted the AG’s office about this matter!

Logan Wainwright is like the best small engine mechanic in the world!  Just saying!

Was able to jump on the mower after I got off work (waiting for the laughter to die down) yesterday afternoon and get a head start on the grass cutting.  Of course, Charles was outside and basically demanded that I mow his yard first which I did.  Lord willing, today will see me working in the yard all day today before heading toward Tuscaloosa.

We are on a regular schedule this Sunday morning and evening.

Lord willing, I will be out of town in the morning so I am not sure if I will post an entry or not.  Just FYI in case there is not an entry.

I am going out on a limb and picking Louisville to beat Clemson tomorrow night.  (Please do not tell Pastor Terry Rainey about this pick!)  I hope I am wrong as I like Coach Dabo.  I am also picking Bama to beat UK if they have any players left!  Pee Wee is already in Tuscaloosa and may have to suit up!

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