I want to give you an update on me. This week makes six months since my first fall. Today, I want to declare myself well. That’s not saying my feet don’t hurt or swell sometimes, but it is saying I can walk again on my own. In other words, I’m not 100%, but I am an A-. I plan to keep improving until I am 100%!

THANKFULNESS – Day 13

Today, I am thankful I can walk again. but I am thankful for all who helped me get this far and to those who offered kind words of encouragement along the way. I’m thankful to God for healing my feet.

Today, let’s take the focus off ourselves and think about those who have trouble, either permanently or temporarily, in getting around. I can “Put myself in their situation”, but even if you have not “Been there”, try to do so in your mind. Be kind, understanding, and even helpful as you give them a word of encouragement .

“I will praise God’s name in song and glorify him with thanksgiving. ”

Psalm 69:30 NIV

On Sunday, October 30th, Coach Gary Micajah Hendry, Sr., beloved husband of Linda Stegall Hendry for 55 years, went to heaven to be with His LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ and to be reunited with his precious sons Gary Micajah Hendry, Jr. and Michael Warren Hendry.

Most people just called him coach because of his love for football and his team. I could list all of his many accomplishments and they would be impressive, but the thing that stands out in my mind is the number “4”. Whenever he would see his former players they would say, “I remember coach: Number 1 is God, number 2 family, number 3 books and number 4 football.” All he worked with knew that his team would begin and end with prayer.

Gary was an ordained deacon and served faithfully for many years until his health declined. He was a man that never lied and always stood by his word, but the thing he would want everyone to know is that he was a sinful man, saved by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS CHRIST, the SON of GOD. Gary would want you to know that he did nothing, nothing at all , to earn or deserve the gift of the Lamb. He only needed to accept and believe. “I’ve seen the Lord,” he cried. “He is my life today!” “He is my precious Savior!” “My Rock!” “My Lamb!” “My way!” “I can say with confidence that I’ll never be the same, since I met the Savior and he called me by my name!”

Gary was preceded in death by his mom and dad, Maybelle and Louis Hendry, his sister, Jerrye Kaye Rawls and husband, Willie: his younger brothers, Beau Hendry and Bennett Hendry, his brother-in-law, Robert Benton Stegall, Jr., and his sons Gary Micajah Hendry, Jr., and Michael Warren Hendry.

Those who will miss him most are his wife, Linda Stegall Hendry: grandson, Corbin Micajah Hendry, and mom Laurie: sister, Terrye Rhame and husband Jerry: cousin and wife, Shirley Littell and Deborah: Leslie Cleveland and husband Arthur: nieces Hannah Stegall, Sarah Stegall, Lydia Stegall Mendheim, Tonya Perniciaro, Jackie Davis, Amy Ballard, Debbie Moye, Deanna Straight, Cheyenne Hendry, Savannah Stein: nephews, David Rawls, Shane Hendry, and Clint Hendry.

Services will be held at First Baptist Church in Amite Louisiana on Saturday, November 5, 2022. Visitation from 9:00AM until 11:00AM, service at 11:00AM, interment at Arcola-Roseland Cemetery.

In Lieu of flowers the family requests donations to St. Jude’s.

PRAYER FOCUS FOR TODA’S SHOEBOXES

As we focus on collection of Shoeboxes that begins a week from today, let’s focus on what needs to be done to help churches/organizations to finalize their packing.. What’s needed? Who’s going to do it? Transportation plans? Postage funds? Have all the boxes been prayed over? Etc.

Each box is important because each child is important. I can only dream of children in heaven one day who meet the person who packed the shoebox the child received and how they will love sharing how that box made an eternal difference for the child and family members. Dream with me. Paint a picture. Write a song. Regardless, there are millions of children who will be impacted this year. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PART! SAY A PRAYER OF THANKS FOR EACH SHOEBOX.

Today, I am especially thankful for the volunteers who will “man” the drop off sites in the eight countries that “collect and ship them”. Without volunteers, many things would never be accomplished!

Volunteer for something that is important to you.
