so here goes some kind of update..
1) Decorated for Christmas today...Never before this early..well maybe a couple of times. We celebrate Christmas with Allen's family the day after Thanksgiving if he is in the country. It is at our house this year so I had to get the house festive for that. It looks great!
2) I bought my Christmas present already. A Wii...yeah, crazy a 47 year old NANA wanting a Wii for Christmas, but what fun to play with our grandkids, boys (well, men..) and anyone else.
3) Allen comes from a week long meeting in WV on Monday and he will be here till Jan. YEAH!!! Home Christmas and Thanksgiving.
4) I am having surgery again on my Shoulder on the 18th of December. In the some ways it is tons better--in new ways it hurts and there is still some major pain that needs to be checked..FUN, FUN.
5) Our baby boy turns 25 on Monday. I was in the hospital now 25 years ago. He came 9 weeks early and weighed only 4 1/2 lbs. He was so very small. God blessed us, the doctors feared he would only be 2 lbs and not breathing on is own. He fooled them. They expected him to be in the hospital 9 weeks, he was in 10 days and been excelling every since.
6) I bought a new vehicle *new to me*. I have been looking for awhile. I will get it next week. I am so excited.
7) Thanksgiving Day is quickly approaching and I am excited, a little sad, Jason and Jennifer and kids are always here and won't be this year. They are going to her Sister's in Knoxville--believe I am not complaining, I have been very blessed to have them here every year since they married---I will just miss all of them.
That's it for now!
Happy Thanksgiving if I am not on here before then.

Allen Malone here. I, too, am concerned for our nation. Like you, I am disappointed at the number of Americans who so want change that they do not care what the changes are, nor how godless they may be. But fundamentally, you and I are not going to do anything differently than we would have done had the election finished with Mr. McCain on top.
We already knew that neither candidate was worthy of our trust. We would have much preferred Mr. McCain as the leader of our nation, but our faith is not in any man.
What will we do?
1) We will remember the providential power and wisdom of our God.
We will refuse to forget that God is so powerful that He can raise up any leader He wants. We will remind ourselves that He is so wise that He can respect freedom of will while using our choices to achieve His purposes; that He is the One Who delights to show the world His divine power and proclaim His name in all the earth, and Who can do so through even the most wicked national leaders. (Exodus 9:17).
2) We will rest in the knowledge that God’s redemptive work will achieve its eternal purposes – no matter what.
We will recall that no matter what calamities may befall our nation because of its pride, materialism, immorality, and profanity, and no matter how much the righteous may have to suffer with the wicked, that “in all things God [will] work for the good of those who love Him.” We will rejoice in our knowledge that nothing can separate the people of God from His saving love. We will say, and keep saying, “If God be for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:28-35).
3) We will honor the authority of our government and its leaders.
We will remember that our President and other leaders are ministers of God, whether or not they acknowledge Him. For the sake of the Lord, we will refuse to be among those who slander officials. We will show respect for everyone, especially President Obama. We will submit to and honor our leaders because we have a conscience for God (Romans 13:1-5 ; I Peter 2:13-17).
4) We will pray to God for our nation, and speak to our fellow citizens about our God.
In our longing that peace and tranquility will be preserved in our lives, we will, first of all, lift up “requests, prayers, intercession, and thanksgiving…for all those in authority.” Rather than being distracted by the ungodly thinking and unholy lives of those around and above us, we will encourage godliness and holiness by persuing these in our own lives. We will do this because we know it is right and good, even if at times it seems futile. We will do this because it pleases our God and Savior, “Who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the Truth.” We will do this trusting in the one mediator between God and man, Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all. (I Timothy 2:1-6).
May we be lights in a dark world, channels of grace, heavenly citizens who are content to be aliens here below.
Praise be to God!
Allen

I received word this afternoon that Jeff Kingry passed from this life at 2Am this morning (Sunday?). He was in the hospital in San Antonio, where he had been sent because of Hurricane Ike in the Houston area. He seemed to be doing well after the surgery, but Anna has said to a mutual friend she thinks it may have been a blood clot that took his life. She said his services would probably be in Huntsville, Tx.
Jeff was an amazing evangelist that had been given a great ability to figure out how to spread the gospel in areas that most of us were unsure of how to do it or where to begin.
Allen and I owe him a great deal. He introduced Allen to the work in Vietnam 15 1/2 years ago and it changed our lives.
1000s have been led to Christ by his trailblazing the way in countries like China, Vietnam, Indonesia and many more. We thank God for Jeff and his influence and ability.
May God be with his family at this time.

Tonight as I was moving the trash can to the street, I looked up at the starts. They were so clear and beautiful. I was amazed. It has been so long since I just stopped and appreciated their beauty. So I DID! |
