Thanks for the Prayers 08/18/2010

I just want to once again thank the so many people who have continued so faithfully to pray for Rosa especially, but our entire family while going through the last couple of years. So much has taken place with Rosa’s health, but God is so good and her visit with Dr. Friedman yesterday was such encouragement. He said, “You had an ugly tumor”, with “had” being the operative word. The MRI on monday showed no signs of it reoccurring and we are so thankful. Don’t have to go back to him for a year. Back in July we found out that her chemo-therapy has brought the leukemia cells down to almost nothing. Although she will have to stay on it, that’s a minor thing to have to do. For all of this and through all of this it has been one blessing after the other and we are very, very grateful to God and the so many prayers. Thank you.
I do ask however that you continue to pray for us. Without going into a lot of detail, back in February I resigned as Pastor of the Church where I served for over 23 years. It was a very tough decision and one that did not come easily, or, without difficulty. I prayed and can only say that God gave me peace to do what I did. The hard part was not knowing what I would do, or where God would lead us. So far I have been filling in at some churches and presently Interim at First Baptist Spring Hope.
Here’s my prayer request. That God would lead us soon to do what He wills and plans for our life’s. It’s hard to wait as we all know but you can’t afford to get ahead of Him and neither can you rush Him. So just pray for courage and strength. The other thing is that I will not have health insurance after the end of August. That obviously is a big concern for anyone without it. So I need either another church position or a job that will provide this for me. I covet your prayers for these needs and I thank you once again.
