“Therefore let it be known to you

that the salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles,

and they will hear it!”

~Acts 28:28~

Joey Baugh is returning to his family this week after serving in the Middle East with the military.  Kirk Wales has just deployed.  Thank God for Joey’s safe return.  Pray for Kirk as he serves.  Thank God for all the others who are in the military serving to protect the people of our great country.

Pray for Bonnie Blue Broussard as she has surgery this morning at nine in Baton Rouge.  Pray for her family as they wait during surgery and then care for Bonnie Blue as she recovers.

Pray for Debbie Bales.  She’s hospitalized in McComb.

Continue to pray for Wendell Simmons as he has surgeries to help him recover from his motobike accident.  Wendell is still in Jackson,MS.

Smiley Conerly is better.  Thank you for praying for him.

Donald Ray Cutrer

Donald Ray got to come home and he is doing well. He will still have to take the IV medications for another 6 weeks, but the doctors and nurses showed hin how to administer that. They placed a shunt or whatever it is called in his arm and he gives the drip to himself twice daily. The drip takes about one hour to administer and then he is through for the next twelve hours and he starts all over again.
Thanks to all for your prayers, but still pray for him as he goes through the next six weeks. He feels so much better now that he is at home.
His sugar level now is from 100 to 156 and if it stays that way he can take the meds by mouth instead of the Insulin shots. I sure hope the pills work. Well thanks again my Christian friends for your prayers…..
In Christian Love,
Mary Ann Cutrer

ONE DAY, MY husband and I took up racquetball…

Knowing I needed the exercise, I also ventured into the little box that was the court.  It seemed a trifle small for the two of us, but it was fun.  Having played tennis years ago, in the days of my youth, I managed quite well.  However, being thoroughly out of shape, I found myself running furiously in every direction for about twenty minutes and then suddenly collapsing in a whimpering heap in a corner of the court.

My experience reminded me of many Christians.  Starting off with great enthusiasm, they leap frantically around, chasing the ball and running themselves into the ground, ending up beaten in a short span of time.  This is not the way to play the game.  Watch an expert racquetball player, and you see he paces himself well, knowing just where to put his feet.  He even finishes a vigorous game with steps left over.  The idea is to plod with God, rather than to race through space.  Jill Briscoe, “The Other Side of Redemption,” Here Am I, Lord…Send Somebody Else!,79-80

“But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength;

they shall mount up with wings like eagles,

they shall run and not be weary,

they shall walk and not faint.”

Isaiah 40:31

Thank God for another day He has gifted us with.  Use it to honor Him!
