Habakkuk 1: For the vision still has its time,  presses on to fulfillment, and will not disappoint;  if it delays, wait for it,  it will surely come, it will not be late.
2 Timothy 1: I remind you, to stir into flame the gift of God that you have through the imposition of my hands. For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather of power and love and self-control.
 Luke 17: “If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you would say to this mulberry tree,  ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.”

Rosemary's Blessing of the Week.

Life is not a journey to the grave

With the intention of arriving safely

In a pretty and well preserved body,

But rather to skid in broadside,

Thoroughly used up,

Totally worn out,

And loudly proclaiming

—WOW—What a Ride!

Elevation time.

Bulletin 5 on the Lumbar Stenosis event:

1. Surgery at Dallas Presby yesterday to take the pinch off of my spinal nerve which sent pain from my derriere all the way to my right foot & arch.
2. the only pain now comes from the incision.  This was expected to be pretty significant.  Remedy: 2 pain pills.  Result: no pain, but significant dizziness.  I thought I had downed 2 shots of Jack Daniels.
