...Jesus. I wish I were more like Him. Full of love, and compassion, and Godly wisdom. I am recognizing more and more lately how weak I am. Frail, really. In my mind, a failure. I do wish I were more like my Lord. I never seem to know what to do, but He always knew/knows.
This has been a difficult day for me, but God has been so good. I've been looking around on some other folks blogs. There seems to be some stir among some out there to really try and get close to God as we prepare for the upcoming General Assembly.
God, help us to get ready!
In other news...Brother Terry and I went to the chjurch tonight and hung the cross that he built and also the new attendance board that the Gleaners raised money to purchase. They are working on money for a good set of flag poles now. Our flags are hanging on the wqalss, but we really want to get a set of good poles for them.
Then returned home where my mom and sister were watching the girls. A dangerious combination, the four of them. The house is still standing, and I don't think anything was broken beyond compare. I had to perform a minor surgery to remove a splinter from little Taylor's heel. She is tougher than pig iron. Barely whimpered. She was mostly mad because we were holding her down. Fiesty, that one.
I gotta get in bed now.. long day tomorrow.
God bless you all...

Hey Brother Donnie! Good to see you blogging again. We appreciate your spirit so much and we are praying for you and all those in your area. God is moving! Hang in there.
Oh yeah. I miss the Buddha picture. :-)
I wish I was more like Jesus too!!:0)
Good to hear from you all!

Hey Bro. Donnie! Good to here from you man. I've been thinking about you a lot here lately. I heard you were in the hospital having tests done. But I'm glad are back up and feeling snazzy. Hope so much to see you at the assembly, i'll introduce you to my love that I've been writing about so much. (She says hi.)
Hey, everybody...
Sorry, Sister Cokelady, about the buddha picture. My wife and daughter thought the "Big People are harder to kidnap" shirt was really hilarious. We have had some good laughs out of it. Oddly, my daughter thinks it the greatest thing that her dad is (in her words) "kind of like a giant."
Sister Sutton,
Thanks for stopping by. We're praying for you guys as you settle in to what I know is a whole new mode of life. Thank God for your willingness to go and work for Him.
Brother Dustin!!!
I was just talking about you tonight...just minutes before seeing your comment. Thanks for the thoughts and prayers. I haven't had any more chest pain, to speak of. I still have the occasional difficulty breathing and with my pulse gettinbg a little fast. Honestly, I think it is stress...nah! My stomach has been giving me some problems the last five or six days, but honestly, I've begun to notice that these things come on me in moments when I am under added stress. But, I won't whine, because I am certainly not the only one of us who is feeling the stress of this current turmoil. Besides, God is firmly in control.
Can't wait to meet your love. I've seen her picture. She's very pretty. Good for you. I also hear she is very sweet. Tell her hi from us.
God bless you all...
Brother Donnie
I agree, the kidnap shirt is a keeper. But couldn't you have worn it in the buddha pose? :-P
Hope all is well with you and yours. We're sending up lots of EXTRA prayers for your region today. God has all the answers and the healing necessary, if people will just be sensitive and obedient to Him. I'm excited about the possibilites!
haha
I'm excited about the possibilities as well. We had a pretty good meeting overall last night. I've heard nothing about the meeting in IN today. I'm hopeful. We really need a healing in the whole church, perhaps in this region in particular. Please continue praying.
God bless you...
Brother Donnie
