The good, the strep and the worried
Amy had another good day and she even cooked supper. Brittany on the other hand is recovering from strep-throat, so please be praying for her. At the risk of being a bit preemptive, I think we’ve made it through a week without going to the ER! Yeah!
Psalm 37:25
I was young and now I’m old, but I have never seen good people left helpless or their children begging for food.
We all worry. We worry about work, or school, or our taxes. We worry we wont have enough money and when we do have money, we worry that we wont manage it well. The examples are endless! Honestly now, did God save us so we would worry? Would He be nailed to a cross for our sins and then disregard our prayers? Come on! Or is scripture teasing us when it reads in Psalms 91:11 ‘For he will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.’ Worry is wasteful. It wastes time, it wastes energy and it wastes our joy. More over, it distracts us from our worship.

Hi Vince and Amy,
Just wanted you to know that we have ladies who will joyfully spend from 9-1 or so with Amy each day during the school week for the month of September. I'll put a copy of the schedule in your mailbox Sunday morning and one in each of the ladies mailboxes as well. I thought mid-September we could evaluate and determine what to do about October. Some ladies have already volunteered for October too!
