“Blessed be the Lord,
because He has heard the voice of my supplications!”
~Psalm 28:6~
Renee Deck is much better than she was earlier in the week. She will be hospitalized a couple more days to allow her to regain some strength. She’s in room 520 now.
Jason Dean is improving at home. He’s had a lot of pain, but progressing well. Please continue to pray for him and his family.
Greg Tanner’s mother passed away. I’ll post an obituary when one is available.

Heart to Heart with Holley:When you’ve had one of those weeks….
It’s been one of those weeks.
You know the kind that tempt you to pull the covers back over your head?
I’m recovering from recent travel, a cold, an unexpected medical issue.
It’s the everyday things that throw us off the most sometimes.
They make us forget who we are, who we belong to, where we’re going.
Maybe that sometimes happens to you too?
If so, I want to lean in close in the middle of all those little things and whisper some BIG truth to us…
Yes, you are loved. More than you know. More than you see. Deeper than you’ve dared to dream. {Ephesians 3:16-19}
Yes, you are really part of a good plan and you belong to a God who will make sure it happens. {Jeremiah 29:11}.
Yes, you are going to make it through this not just somehow but victoriously. {Philippians 4:13}
When life gets hard the lies get loud.
But in the middle of all the noise, there is still what’s true.
Especially when it been one of those weeks.
{p.s. I actually wrote this last week and I’m feeling better but we still all need those reminders, don’t we?}
Pray for all those who will be traveling this week. Pray for family gatherings to be a time of love and making new memories. Say a special prayer for those who will be celebrating alone. If possible, take them in to celebrate with your family.
Thankful!
