Because we weren’t able to tow the motorcycle behind us on our trip from Oregon to Arizona, on Monday, Mark flew back to Oregon to get his motorcycle and he’s been working on making his way back here by bike.

Family help and friendly prayers!
Mark has a sister in Ogden, Sharon, who brought us her car to use for a couple of days, and her son, Trevor, is going to help her get around while we have her car. My family has also been helping us, and I also want to thank all of you who have been praying for us. All prayers are gratefully received!

Thank you to so many of you who wrote and said you are praying for me. I wanted to give a quick update to those who are reading but didn’t write.

I still plan to get an appointment with the urologist, but I am encouraged that there was nothing visible in the CT scan that might have been serious and the bleeding stopped as quickly as it started. Your prayers were a great comfort to me! I will let you know if my urologist has any ideas about what happened.

I was reading this morning that Twitter has reported there are more attacks being planned for the 17th and the 20th. There were photos of tweets from the extremists saying they plan to come out in numbers greater than the police and the National Guard who are planning to provide security for the inauguration, and that these groups are planning to bring guns. Would you join me in praying for safety for the politicians, the police, the National Guard, and the average citizens of Washington DC for the next month? God help us all!
The world has turned upside down!
If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14)

God is so good!
I haven’t had a chance to talk about Wednesday yet, and now I have news from today as well, so this could be a little bit longer than usual!
Kind of a shock to the system
Everything has been up in the air for us regarding our trip to Oregon for the next couple of months. My brother-in-law has been living in adult foster care most of this year, so we’re not sure where we will be living. But today, we got more unsettling news… Continue reading
