Back home from yet another doctor’s appointment. This time they gave me a transfusion. I had a cigar when I got home.
Hey, here’s a cool book: Chessmen of Mars, by Edgar Rice Burroughs. The protagonist, John Carter’s daughter, Tara of Helium, has a motto that gets her through a host of dangerous and difficult adventures: “I still live.”
Next week it’s time for my colon cancer operation. I think I need that motto.
(Erlene, are you out there? Hi sign to you.)
Yes, I’m here, slightly. Greetings to one and all.
We are all pulling for you!
Someone needs to make a song titled, “I Still Live.”
Both you and Erlene, and others on this blog are on my daily prayer list.
May the God of peace, grant you tranquility of mind, serenity, and comfort during your trying times of pain and trials, and the uncertainty of the outcome of future earthly events. May your loved ones also feel God’s presence upon their lives during this upheaval and turmoil in their families’ life. Moreover, remember, God knows our needs, wants, and desires, and at times, allows these kinds of events to invade and enter our life. We don’t have to understand why, just allow these things to change us for the better, which they can, if we so will. Thy will be done O Lord.
I have a prayer request. I just learned my only brother had another stroke last night and is in the hospital now.
Elder Mike, I’m praying for your brother right now. And of course I too have been in constant prayer for Lee, Patty, Erlene, and everyone here.
Mike, I went to bed early last night so I’ve only just seen this post. Your prayer request is the first order of business today,.
My prayers remain for all here, and Mike’s brother. It’s good to see you, Erlene. Hang in there Lee, you are making a lot of progress. Amen, come quickly Lord Jesus.
