Friday

“All the ends of the earth

will remember and turn to the Lord.

All the families of the nations

will bow down before You,

for kingship belongs to the Lord;

He rules over the nations.”

~Psalm 22:27-28, HCSB~

 

Mallory got to go home yesterday afternoon.  She’ anxious to do her school work and make up and keep up with her lessons.  She will be at home for at least two weeks.  Home health begins today.  Thank-you for praying.  Thank God for walking through this problem with Mallory and her family.

Thankfulness: Day 7 – This was not in my original thoughts, but is now because of Mallory’s burns.  I thank God for all that happened “just right” to help Mallory and her family this week.  Neighbors, friends, co-workers, etc. brought love and encouragement to the family.  I’m also thankful the family was in Richmond and close to great medical care.  The family was blessed last month when Boyd’s dad passed away and again this month.  God can and does get people through difficult days.  I’m so thankful they know Him and He knows them as His children!

Devotional, Scripture, and a Song

This devotional is the one scheduled for everyone to read today.  Amazingly, God timed it “just right” for me.  He does things like that all the time for us.

  • There shall be no more curse.                                                                                                    ~Revelation 22:3~
  • “Peace in the Valley” 
    • Originally, this was a Negro spiritual.
    • Do your own Google search to see how many big-time musical artists (Johnny Cash, Red Foley, Frank Sinatra, Red Foley, Loretta Lynn, Ronnie Milsap, Elvis Presley, etc.) have recorded this song.  I think that shows many people are searching for that peace.
    • I think it speaks to us any day, but especially in a time of need.
    • I hope you know this peace today, so it will be with you each day of your life, especially the difficult ones.

I’m praying that you do have that “peace” I mentioned above.  If so, I’m so glad for you.  If not, I’m sure you know someone who can share Jesus with you.  Don’t wait until it is too late!
