Dennis,
I hope you realize how many good sermons you have had from the gang. Good stuff and right on. Bad things in your life make you understand life much better. As I read and understand the plan of God, He makes it pretty clear about priorities in our lives. 1) Our relationship with God - - 2) Our relationship with our family - - 3) Our relationship with others. So many times we let "stuff" get in the way of numbers 1, 2 and 3. When I had my heart attack and I am laying in my yard almost unable to move, I looked up into the clear blue Florida sky and asked God if we were changing our relationship today - - would I be coming to be with Him? Number 2, I tried to remember how good a smacker I put on my wife the morning before as I put her on the airplane - - was it a quicky or was it a good one with a sincere "I love you?" I then started praying for my kids, grandkids and friends that do not know Jesus Christ as their Saviour. Long story short - - I flat lined on the way into the hospital, had a remarkable experience during that time, and woke up in the emergency room. It was later in the day when things settled down I could reflect on what had happened. It made me quite satisfied to remember I first considered my relationship with God, next with my wife, next others. All the other stuff is just that - - STUFF. Some of it necessary, but still stuff. I remember looking back when I flat lined to see if my wife was coming too - - a voice said you are going alone, there is no one or nothing behind you. You are in the right thinking right now - - God is first, THEN, it says "all these other things will be added unto you." Concentrate on God first - - let Him beat you up good (LOL), be yeilding to what He tells you - - then you can better concentrate on "all those other things" starting with your wife and kids. I am praying for you.

Possible AF Crash
VIA A friend in the Air Force in AK...... We just had a C-17 go down while practicing for this weekends air show.
I don't have any details, but we watched it go down while waiting to go
on base. Prayers for the pilots and crew please.

Please pray for this family. I was the trooper that handled this wreck, and it was a huge tragedy. Daughters watching their mom being killled, and a 6 yr old granddaughter seeing the same thing. Please hold this family in your prayers.

It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

Ouch! What a tragedy to have to watch, knowing that in that split second nobody can do anything. This will leave scars for ever. My prayers for that family.
Thanks Jack for bringing this to our attention.
