I am just hours from a funeral service and several hours from getting the news that my brother is in the hospital in Jackson, Tennessee. He was taken there as my sister-in-love (law) feared he was having a heart attack. The doctors have said no but clearly something is amiss. Test will be run tomorrow, looking for a blockage or if the two stints he has are going bad.
The memorial service was for Joe Ann Hall. She was 64. My Baby Girl worked with Joe Ann a couple years ago and when Joe Ann became ill Bethany ministered to her in practical ways. It’s been hard.
So here I sit wondering what to write when my mind really wants my body to get up and walk.
Hmmm. Walk and mind. That’s good. To have the mind to walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh. Make it so LORD. Make it so.
1 Samuel 2 NKJV: 35 Then I will raise up for Myself a faithful priest who shall do according to what is in My heart and in My mind. I will build him a sure house, and he shall walk before My anointed forever.
Raise up a faithful priest to do what is in HIS heart and HIS mind. Yes, LORD.
Revelation 1 NKJV: 5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, 6 and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
And you and I have been made priests to the ANOINTED ONE … may we be faithful priest who do the Heart and mind of Christ. Let’s keep making ourselves available for training. Priest Training. We are His priests and we are being trained to live what we are.
Since beginning here I have heard there is heart damage, don’t know the extent of it; more test tomorrow; I am yearning for my brother to be well.
ABBA, I confess I’m a bit skittish tonight; thank You for loving me even so. Thank You for the good reports on Steve. I am grateful, thrilled and delighted. And would You also give us good reports on William too? Please. And I pray for Joe Ann’s family, separation is hard and I pray they will learn to lean on You. Thank You for comforting my Baby Girl and thank You for the ease with which she now receives Your comfort. You are so good!
I pray for our IDOK Troops; for their safety and protection and I pray for each on our Praying For These list — every one of them need a fresh word, fresh contact with You; please do that. And, again, protect Israel and again forgive, have mercy and save America I pray. And as the priests You have made us we offer up these prayers in Your Mighty and Holy Name. Amen and amen.
