We’ve had computer problems and are going to delay our Good Morning! and Encourager mailings until we can get a solution. The OUTLOOK program laid down. Perhaps the first piece of the puzzle has been identified. We’ve begun construction of a new web-site that is more Dan-friendly so I can keep that up-to-date. The blog posting we are now doing at www.biblewalking.blogspot.com and www.bibleliving.blogspot.com will be placed inside the new website. Emailings will continue when the computer is cooperative.
Thanks for allowing us to come into your home or wherever and share our stuff with you. And thanks for the comments we receive from you. Some are forwarding things to your mailing list and we hope it will be a blessing and enjoyment to everyone.
Today I met with my prostate surgeon who did the collagen injections a few days ago. When the swelling and soreness began to recede the space was too large to make a seal and the leaking began again. So, we are set to meet with him again on August 24 to make arrangements for another collagen treatment as soon as possible.
This is in the Lord’s hands whether He heals instantly by His own hand as I have seen him do in the past many times or by the hands of a physician or as in the case of the Apostle Paul: never. When Jacob wrestled with the angel, God touched his hip so that he limped the rest of his life. After Paul had raised the dead, he was destined to carry his handicap for the rest of his days. So, we pray for healing in God’s own way and time or His decision not to heal. It’s up to Him.
We plan to return to Flat Rock Monday, May 17 and have breakfast with our granddaughter: Ashley Cofield at Asheville on Tuesday morning. She spends several days at a time in the mountains with wilderness young people who have severe behavior problems. The workers have to come out of the woods for a week or so to rest.
Another granddaughter, Jennifer Carr, of Winston-Salem, NC is getting married August 21 to Jason Clarke. This has been brewing for some time.
Our nephew, Matthew Hampton, has just been diagnosed with a hyperthyroid condition. He is 35 and pastor of the McFarland Methodist Church in Rossville, Georgia. He lost 14 pounds in just a few days. We appreciate your prayers for him.
It’s a little late for much gardening this year except to take care of our blackberries and maybe set out a few tomatoes and onions. This fall will be good for several kinds of greens. I plan to grow some greens and wheat grass inside during the winter on trays. When you are born with a gardening gene it just hangs on. We quit gardening every fall. This is enough for one Howdy Gram. May the Lord bless you and your family and help you to walk with Him.
