Prayer concern: Missionaries
My prayerful thoughts: Being code compliant and not getting sued by my neighbors. FYI: My mother's side of the family had many missionaries: Oliver, Thea, Ruth and Marg .. all deceased.

Redeeming Lord, thank you for loving me, forgiving me, and setting me free, through Christ. Amen.

Sally's computer got hacked again .. only this time it's her at a LOCAL Dr. office called INLAND computer store here in Topeka KS.

Lazararus
Jesus is moved to sorrow when his friend Lazarus falls ill and dies. Then, in a dramatic scene, he calls his friend out of the tomb and restores him to life.
This is ONE of my favorite stories from the Bible. Sadly, many do not believe in the miracles performed by the SON OF GOD.
My mother's favorite devotional book
Enjoy
