Yvonne Gentry sent this message tonight: "Please pray for Kathy Bucko. She is the daughter of Sue Graves whom we prayed for last year to overcome a punctured aorta during a heart cath procedure. Sue is doing wonderfully well and is convinced God spared her life due to so many prayers lifted up in her behalf. Now, Kathy is having mini-strokes. Doctors are trying to diagnose the problem. Sue would appreciate Kathy's name being lifted up to God for His help."

"Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself" (Matt. 6:34)
Thanks Patrick for reminding us about the mysteries of the bible. But, as humans, it's so hard to NOT worry...but we aren't privvy to the future...God will take care of it, we just have to trust him.
During Patrick's lesson tonight, he told a story about Colt McCoy (quarterback of the Texas Longhorns football team). The Christian Chronicle did a story on Colt this month - you can read it by clicking here. Colt is the type of young man that our kids can look up to.

After being taken to Baylor/Dallas yesterday Leah Denison was quickly taken into emergency surgery. Her colon is injured, but, the section they are worried about has not died yet, so it's a wait and see on that right now. But her pancreas is ruptured and is leaking into her body. They have placed a tube to drain these fluids for the next few days. The Dr. said it just needs time to see if it'll work. She is listed in serious condition. (Her father-in-law is the owner of David's Meat Market.)
