"Serve the Lord with gladness;  Come before Him with joyful singing."

Psalm 100:2

Prayer Requests

~Many thanks for the prayers for my Dad before, during and after his aortic valve replacement!  He is doing well and perhaps "milking it" a bit according to my Mom.  They couldn't schedule him for Cardiac Rehab until September 11th so we'll know more about his physical capabilities then, but so far so good!

~Laken moved into her dorm room on Thursday...  It has been such an emotionally draining week.  First there was shopping and packing to be done.  Then the actual move-in day.  All went well and I held it together until the hubby and I were on the way home.  Friday, I was very weepy all day.  I gave myself that day to be sad and now I have to get myself busy learning my "new life".

~My Bible study time.  I haven't been able to focus very well the last few weeks and that makes it hard for me to sit down and actually study.  I'm hoping to once again work on a routine.

~My new job!  I applied and interviewed for a position as a Teacher's Assistant with Head Start and they called me the very next day to offer me the job!  I'm hoping that working with littles will fill me with a sense of purpose for this new season of life.

~Our Country, and our Leaders.

Scripture Memory Verse

"Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen."

Hebrews 11:1

Prayer Requests

~My Dad is visibly perking up after his aortic valve replacement!  His color is much better and his energy is returning.  He goes back to the cardiologist for a post-op visit this week so praying all is well.

~Laken moves into her dorm room in 3 short weeks.  She is getting nervous about classes and meeting so many new people.  I pray that she and her roommate hit it off and become great friends.  Prayers for her, for this mama and for patience during the preparations for move-in day!

~My Bible study time.  I didn't get up any earlier this week but I did get Bible reading time in while drinking my morning caffeine.  Instead of sitting at the table bemoaning the fact that I wasn't still in bed, I've been reading from the Book of Psalms on my phone's Bible app.  I've also been trying to make some evening Bible study time as well.  Prayers are working!!!

~Prayer of thanks that Kaylee had a safe work trip to Orlando, FL.  She flew out on Monday evening and came back Friday afternoon.  Knowing that my baby was up in the sky flying was a bit anxiety producing but she is now safely home!

"Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand."

Isaiah 41:10

Prayer Requests

~My Dad had his aortic valve replacement this past Wednesday.  They were able to do the replacement using the TAVR procedure and did NOT have to do open-heart surgery!  Praise God!  He came home Thursday afternoon and is doing well.  He is a bit worn out which is to be expected this soon after the surgery.  Your continued prayers for him would be appreciated!

~Laken moves into her dorm room in 4 short weeks.  Prayers for her, for this mama and for patience during the preparations for move-in day!

~My Bible study time.  I'm having a hard time focusing in the evening for my Bible study.  I guess I could try to get up earlier in the morning and have my quiet time with God then.  It is worth considering.  When do you have your study time?

~Our Country, and our Leaders.
