Yesterday, Jim and I were privileged to see a play at the school for the blind in Talladega. It was amazing to see all those children singing their hearts out and quoting every line perfectly. It was emotional. I cried several times because they were so amazing. I looked at all those children and saw how wonderful God truly is. I remembered all the times that I have read the scriptures and Jesus would heal the deaf and blind. Jesus would touch them when he didn't have to. He showed compassion on them and acknowledged them. The play was complicated and busy...something that most "regular" school children couldn't pull off if they wanted to.

We have gotten to know one of the students pretty well. She attends services with us at Ironaton. She is a beautiful young lady that is so precious and kind. She loves to make new friends and is always so happy. She had complications at birth and because of that her eye sight was damaged. The doctors say that it shouldn't get any worse or better for that matter. 

Please be thankful for each moment and each day. Be thankful for your healthy children. Be thankful for your disabled or handicap children. God sees them all as a blessing. It is up to us to open our eyes and hearts to see like God would have us to.

Psalm 127:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.


Thank you God for one more day!

Please pray for Emma Mitchell at this time. She is battling cancer. She has been fighting hard for a long time. With God all things are possible. Emma, we hope you get a special Christmas gift this year. Munford loves you, sweetheart.
