Cameron will be
getting his cap and gown pictures taken this Friday. He will graduate from
kindergarten soon. I know I am going to cry. He has changed and grown so much
since last year. He is reading so well. He is one of the few students that have
been allowed to bring home books from class because he is reading so well. I am
so amazed. Cameron has also gotten into playing angry birds. He and I play together
and we jump up and down when we finally beat a level.
Jim has been getting hurt a lot here lately. He has broken
his hand and bruised his leg real bad due to a fall. He fell again and got
banged up pretty good. He smashed a finger where it was swollen 3 times its
normal size. We are sure he is going to lose his fingernail any day now. He is
so tired all the time. The Advanced Heart Failure clinic is going to do another
transplant evaluation on him in April. His medicine has helped so much. It has
allowed him to continue up into this point. I give the credit to God for all
the prayers that are lifted on our behalf each day. Jim recently preached at
the Lineville congregation. He has been teaching the morning adult Bible class
at Ironaton church of Christ. Right now he is with Chris Clevenger visiting at
areas hospitals in Birmingham.
I am giving my mid-term exams this week. I am in my 3rd
semester at Central Alabama Community College. The students are so fun and
challenging all at the same time. I am so thankful that I am able to work as
much as I do and that I have a job. I have been having a lot of flare-ups. I
have met a new doctor. He has given me some medicine that seems to be helping.
It will be a battle that I will face every day until I die but I plan to fight
every step of the way.
We don’t get as many cards as we used to but we know that
you are keeping us in your prayers and that is all that matters. Thank God for
you. No matter what may come, we need to be thankful for each day and to be
content. May God help us all to do His will and help ourselves and others to go
to heaven. Please be faithful…He is
faithful to His children.
When
upon life’s billows you are tempest tossed,
When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,
Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.
Are you ever burdened with a load of care?
Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?
Count your many blessings, every doubt will fly,
And you will keep singing as the days go by.
When you look at others with their lands and gold,
Think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold;
Count your many blessings money cannot buy
Your reward in heaven, nor your home on high.
So, amid the conflict whether great or small,
Do not be discouraged, God is over all;
Count your many blessings, angels will attend,
Help and comfort give you to your journey’s end.
Count your blessings, name them one by one,
Count your blessings, see what God hath done!
Count your blessings, name them one by one,
Count your many blessings, see what God hath done.
When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,
Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

Psalm 119:165
Great
peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall
offend them.
