Isaiah 49:6 tells the prophet he is to be a light to the nations, and so should each of us that know the grace of the Lord. This is indeed the greater task to which we should aspire. Isaiah was shortsighted and thought he was only a minister to the Hebrews but God said that task was ...Too Small A Thing... and that He would be a witness to the enitre earth. And so he wrote a book we read 2700 years later.

A Lot to Praise God For

Yes we all have a lot to praise God for everyday. But this morning I will be specific in a few things I am rejoicing at right at this moment.

First I have been getting progressively worse over the last few weeks with anohter episode of Chronic Idiopathic Urticaria. If you do not know what that is let me interpet. Hives with an unknown cause. I have struggled with this since 2001 off and on. Mostly off because if it is on it is miserable. Basicly I have red itching hives at night when I try to sleep. If you are Piney Grove your have probably heard me mention it over the summer as it returned in June and has been with me getting progressively worse. So bad in fact that I went to the doctor yesterday. He has changed a medicine and Praise the Lord they are not gone but diminished this morning.

Second I praise the Lord as Brett and Joy arrived last night and they are with us for a few days. I love my son and his wonderful wife and so I am glad they are here safe and sound and we will truly enjoy today.

Third I praise the Lord for Men's Bible Study at "The Barn" which is starting this morning. I am writing in a hurry so I can leave and go to see a group of men who love the Lord Jesus that I have not seen all summer.

These are three things I am praising the Lord for this morning I know there will be more today.
