CT Scan

A couple of weeks back I planned on taking Good Friday off. We have service tonight and the kids had the day off so I thought it would be a nice day.

Shortly after I took the day off, we were told it that I had an appointment for a CT scan today at 7:30 am. Which meant I had to get up at 5:00 am, earlier than I get up for work.

So this morning we got up, loaded the kids into the van, and drove. The paperwork stated this needed to be a fasting test, so the kids and Alexis ate while I was getting ready. At 5 minutes to 6 this morning we hoped into the van and were on our way. We made it to radiology before the 7:00 am time they wanted us there and plenty early for my 7:30 am appointment.

God was smiling on me this morning. The technician's 7:00 appointment was late, so she called me back and was done by 7:20. Gotta love that!

Stopped at Mickey D's for a quick breakfast, came home, took a nap, had a picnic at the park, then us boys went and got our haircuts. We are now just hanging out before we leave for our Good Friday Prayer Service. I wonder what we are going to have for dinner?

God Bless and remember He Is Risen!

Sermon - Christmas Peace - Luke 2:14 - Littleby Baptist Church - December 20, 2020

Luke 2:14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and peace on earth to people he favors!” All Glory and Honor belong to our God!  May the Lord’s Peace fall on each of us. May the Peace that defies all logic and reasoning be with you. Peace is one of those things that has escaped many of us at times in 2020. The struggles many faced with job issues, medical issues, family uncertainty, and more made it hard to hold on to Peace. Part of the problem I think is that we were trying to find our own peace. When things are starting to get to us one of the first things many of us do is to attempt to create peace on our own. We may go sit in a dark and quiet room, take a long hot bath, listen to some music, spend time in the workshop, sew, or whatever we think will help us step away from the craziness that is getting to us. Doing these types of things to bring calm may help for a while, they may help us step away, but the reality is they do not help us to have the full Peace of the Lord

Sermon March 20, 2011 - Jeremiah 29:11-14 God has a plan

No Audio file this week, but here are my notes. Message title: Jeremiah 29:11-14 God Has A Plan The Big Idea for message: Even when we do not understand why things are happening, during the good and the bad, God has a plan. Sticky Statement: Seek God with all that you have and He will restore you!! Misc: Before I get started this morning, I have a service announcement. Some of us have been using the NIV translation for up to 25 years now. Well Zonderzan, the publisher, is updating the NIV Bible. They are coming out with a 2011 version. I tend to be a fan of reading different Bible versions, but I want to caution everyone. The 1984 version of the NIV is a good Bible, a few years back they came out with the TNIV version which was gender neutral in a lot of places that was not right. In some places it referred to God in a gender neutral way, I do not agree with that. Now the new 2011 NIV is based more on the TNIV than the 1984 version of the NIV, so it has roughly 3600 gender ne

My Medical Journey

Hey All, This week is a week of waiting. Last week we found out that I have Acostic Neuroma (AN). This is a tumor growing between the nerves that control hearing, facial function, and balance. For me this is on the left side of the head and has significantly impacted my hearing in my left ear. I do have some very mild symptoms in addition to the hearing loss, but nothing that would have caused me to see the Dr. on their own. For most people this is found when the tumor is 2-4MM, mine is 23 MMs in size. Not uncommon, just that more than 50% of people diagnosed with AN have smaller tumors. For the past week Alexis and I have been doing a LOT of research. Some of it is scary, but some of it is reasuring. Mostly we know that God is in control no matter what. Their are 5 treatment options available for AN. 3 are micro-surgery of the brain and 2 are different radiation programs. Each option has its own set of risks and benefits. Each surgery has side effects from facial paralysis, total loss
