Love is not blind, it sees more not less; but because it sees more it chooses to see less. -Unknown
Stan Jenks was in services this past Sonday – and looking GREAT! Changes in his meds have greatly improved how he was feeling.
Please pray for Hank. He is married to Pauline, a close friend of mine – they live up in Washington. He was driving their tractor when it slipped off the side of the road and knocked him off. The rear tire of the tractor then ran over him. He is in the hospital in Spokane with a busted pelvis. Praise You Father! Hank is alive!
Char and Hal Cole are traveling to see their old friend, Larry Reynolds. Larry is in the last stages of cancer. His most urgent need is that he is not in relationship with God. .
Mitch, who fell from the hunting stand, is doing well. He is at peace with knowing he may never walk again but also determined to prove the doctor’s wrong.

Great & Glorious God,
My mind is dazzled by the thought of You and of all Your glory. I try to imagine the vision of You on Your throne that Isaiah saw and my heart beats faster as I glory in You. But even as my mind is dazzled I know that I have not even begun to scratch the surface of the infinity of You. You are beyond what I can imagine. You are my dreams come true and more than I am able to dream. You are God and we worship You.
