“If you want to know what God wants you to do, ask him . . .
but . . . if you don’t ask with faith,
don’t expect the Lord to give you any solid answer.”
~James 1:5-8 (TLB)~
I forgot to tell you Tommy Hood was able to leave MD Anderson and is now back at home. Thank God for the progress Tommy has made in his treatment.
Mrs. Bessie Hayden did not get to come home because of complications. Pray for her as she puts up a battle.
Please remember to pray for my former student, C.J. Schiro, who is fighting Covid-19. There are others who are more local. Add them to your list.
