Thursday

“So get rid of your old self,

which made you live as you used to —

the old self that was being destroyed

by its deceitful desires.

Your hearts and minds must be made completely new,

and you must put on the new self,

which is created in God’s likeness

and reveals itself in the true life

that is upright and holy.”

~Ephesians 4:22-24 TEV~

“Lil Man” Santangello

Update from Megan: “Hey everyone! Today we met with Lil Man’s neuro oncologist and radiation oncologist to go over his MRI. The MRI scan looked great! The doctors were amazed at how well he is doing when a month ago he couldn’t even walk. He responded wonderfully to the chemo and radiation that he completed on May 22nd! He will follow-up in August with another MRI. But until then, he will continue with oral chemotherapy and his IV Avastin (IV chemo). He will now be getting the IV Avastin every three weeks instead every 2 weeks!! All the glory be to God, for without him Lil Man would not healing like he is!! Thank you for all the prayers, love, and support! Keep the prayers coming, God hears them! We love you! ” Megan

Devotional, Scriptures, and a Song

  • “A Missing Sheep” –  http://odb.org/
  • We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.                                                                                                                                                  ~Psalm 100:3~                                                                              He rejoiceth more of that sheep,                                                                                                            than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.                                                                                                                                           ~Matthew 18:13~
  • “The Ninety and Nine” –  http://cyberhymnal.org/htm/n/i/90_and_9.htm                                      I remember the “who, when, and where” of first hearing this hymn.                                                  Who – Rev. Charles Tolleson, then a student at SLC, and my uncle,  was                                             the guest musician at a revival.                                                                                                  When – I was a child (1950’s) and very impressionable.                                                                Where – Natalbany Baptist Church on Highway 51                                                            Going home, I discussed it with my parents and at home,  looked it up in a                      hymnal so I could soak in every work and the meaning of all those words.  

                

With the improvements in technology in the last 102 years, just imagine how it could sound today!

I’m remembering the many “one lost sheep” all around me and all around the world today!
