Highs .n. Lows Loving with the Disease

Another Beautiful Morning!
I have been busy the last few days taking Paul in for eye Dr appointments...

I was cleaning the house getting ready for the kids & grandkids to come and Paul walks in and tells me he has something in his eye.  I look up from the kitchen sink and said we need to go to the emergency room...
His left eye was polked with a pine needle branch and it has a very large blood vessel or blood blister on his eye left eye.  It looks very painful.  It's full of blood and was bruising...
We went to our local emergency room and they sent us to a bigger emergency room with a trauma doctor.  It looks so painful...
After visiting with the eye Dr it was determined to try to have it heal without surgery.  The left eye has a lot of bruising and it looks very painful.  We had an appointment the next day and then they are having Paul go in every 4/5 days to watch for infection. Paul is using two different kinds of antibiotics...an eye drop and eye sav...
We continue to pray for no complications...

So thankful for all we can do...

Today's Bible Study

God Knows What You Need
By Charles Stanley
Read | John 4:1-16

One reason we at times have a weak faith is because our view of God is faulty. That’s not totally surprising—after all, He is so big, how could we ever truly get an accurate picture of what He looks like, how He acts, or how He feels about us personally?

Knowing that we would need a way to understand Him, our heavenly Father revealed Himself through His Son. And so “the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us” (John 1:14). The better we get to know Jesus, the more we will understand the Father (14:9).

And when we take a look at the way Jesus treated the people around Him, we get a good illustration of God’s love. Think about the woman at the well in today’s Scripture passage. This was a person who had been outcast by society. The fact that she came to draw water during the heat of the day (4:6)—a time when no one else would be around— indicates that her exclusion from the townspeople was not just their idea; she herself felt the need to stay isolated.

But what did Jesus do? He loved her. He accepted her. He gave her what no one else would give: attention and respect. That is what He does for us as well. The Lord does not want us burdened by guilt, shame, or heartache. Nor does He want us to be secluded from other people. Instead, He calls us to become active participants in His kingdom.

Have you cut yourself off from those around you? Take hold of your Savior’s hand today, and start experiencing the joy of His acceptance.

Looking forward to another great day...
