The gift of song...

Well, this morning, I was able to help sing for worship at church for the first time in almost a year. I was exhausted, but it felt good to sing again! Nothing fancy, no solos, just singing harmony and melody, depending on the song. I love to sing, and love to worship with Matt Griffith and the crew he usually asks. What a blessing. It was fun, encouraging and something else that is being restored from this past year. I don't know how often I will be able to do this, but it was a good thing. I am thankful. 


Buddy is feeling much better, thinks he never had Lyme's and is having to listen to me nag him to be careful and persistent. Another friend from church snagged him this morning who is a physician that helps a lot of folks with Lyme's, and discussed things with him. It's hard when you get a false negative, and you feel a ton better! He will probably pursue another blood test this friend suggested that can show the reality earlier than other blood tests. Tricky thing, Lyme's is...


Thankful thoughts:

  • The recent lack of humidity the past few days
  • Naps, especially when nighttime sleep eludes me
  • Rosebushes
  • A day-visit to Joni camp. better than nothing! And I get to go again this week!
  • Scrambled eggs made by my son. Yumminess.  :)
  • Reading. One of my favorite pastimes

This is my prayer for you...it is one of my favorite passages, and holds so many things that I wish for you.


Ephesians 3:14-21

For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge —that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.

As far as my situation...my radiation burns are healing very well. Still itchy, but mostly faded. I need to stay out of the sun since that skin is too sensitive for sunscreen. That's okay..heat is not my friend right now anyway! Be praying for my feet. They continue to be an issue, and I am pursuing some other options to help them. We will see...


Have a blessed week. Enjoy the cooler weather this week!
