Amos: Hear this, you who trample upon the needy and destroy the poor of the land!
1 Timothy 2: It is my wish, then, that in every place the men should pray, lifting up holy hands, without anger or argument.
Luke 16: No servant can serve two masters. He will either hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and mammon.

what you don’t think you can do, but,
in Jesus Christ you’ll have all the strength necessary.

Hello Everyone. I am happy to report that John had his surgery on Friday. Everything went well and he is a happy camper. He walked down the hall tonight with his walker and NO pain. He comes home tomorrow.

Special thanks to Mike Carrell who spent the day in the hospital with John waiting for the surgery.
