“Let your light shine before men
in such a way that they may see your good works,
and glorify your Father who is in heaven.”
~Mathew 5:16, NASB~
John Morgan, of Amite, had surgery at North Oaks yesterday. Please keep John and his family in your prayers.
Jimmy Schwartz is home from North Oaks again. Please continue to pray for him.
Momma is on that roller coaster ride again and taking all of us with her. Please pray for our family.
Donnie Eudy, my brother-in-law, will have a cyst removed from his foot/ankle this morning in Hammond. Pray all goes well today and during his recovery time.
Boyd was blessed to find a cancellation with a neurologist and get in yesterday. He will be having tests today and tomorrow before seeing a specialist Monday. Thanks to FBC, New Orleans for stepping in and helping the family with logistics.
Heart to Heart with Holley: Why I can’t compete with you…
(Posted: 01 Aug 2011 06:31 AM PDT)
But it isn’t what you might imagine.
We don’t have the same starting line.
The same distance to go.
The same steps to take.
Our finish lines are even in different places.
You see, my friend, we’re not running on a track–
we’re each running on a one-lane path.
In the Kingdom, there’s no such thing as competition.
It’s impossible.
Because no one else ever has or ever will run your race.
So go for it, my friend, be strong, brave, beautiful YOU all the way to the end.
{Psst, here’s a secret: You’ve already won.}
Maybe our “roller coaster ride” I mentioned earlier should have been described as a personal race. Thanks, Holley, for reminding me we have already won.
