Well, I walked into SAGU this morning at 7:30 a.m. and they just announced the closing of the University. I see it is not supposed to get above 32 degrees until Friday morning but will warm up by Sunday and be about 65. Thank the Lord. Once we get out of February, hopefully, this inclement weather will not dominate our lives. Ya all be careful if you have to get out today. I see we are supposed to get one to three inches of snow today also.
This is the second week in a row that we have had to dismiss our Wednesday evening services due to weather. Hopefully that will be the last one. Thank the Lord. I miss seeing you all.
I have been trying something different for my devotions at night with Leah. We are reading through a great Children's Bible Stories Book which has a summary of all the Biblical stories. Because I teach both Old and New Testament, I of course add to these stories plus having been to Israel helps some too. Also I have been reading George Bush's biography, Decision Points. It is very interesting to see how his Christian testimony shines through the book as he shares the major decision points that make him who he is today. His mom and dad, George and Barbara Bush, have made a tremendous impact on his life. It was interesting to see that he and his brother, Jebb Bush, were Governors at the same time.
I just received news this morning from Fay that Thelma Mathews went to be with the Lord at 2 a.m. this morning. I know they will be making funeral arrangements this afternoon. Let's pray for Al and the family during these next few days that the Lord will comfort them in the home going of Thelma. Details to follow later.
The Apostle Paul says that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord and again he says, precious in the sight of the Lord is the home going of the saints.
Bless you all and we see that we really need one another's prayers during these days.
Bless each one of you.
Pastor Larry
