Sunday Moving Day

Good morning to you all! Hey did you have a chance to check out the
family photo from Thanksgiving weekend. Wow, what a snap shot! Of course, Joel stole most photogenic again.But it is obvious that he has no idea which way the wind was blowing that day.(Joel, lucky you weren't playing golf on the weekend.) Joel(20)is my oldest son. Next to Joel is my youngest son, Jeremiah(13),next to Jeremiah is Grandpa Wade. Then, Grandma Wade is by Grandpa, but our family member for the last 11 years is between them. His name is Gean. Beside Grandma is my brother Dale. On my right, I have my beautiful wife, Esther. Behind her, is my son Josiah.(16) There's my oldest child,Rachelle(21), right behind me, making sure I'm behaving. Now, if you can follow that, you are having one amazing day!
Yesterday was suppose to be quite relaxing and quiet because i was going to be alone for a bunch of the day, due to my brother going home and my wife arriving later in the day. But, not even close! It was an awesome day, full of people dropping by and calling! I have to admit though, the yard sale was a huge highlight! Anyhow, it was another day full of sharing and prayer(ok, I watched the nhl hockey game on tv last night too.)

Thanks Rick Z. for directing hungry Bible students to my blog with the intention of doing battle prayer. That's huge for me! All prayer is very much welcome here. Of course, it's same old, same old, from the doctors here regarding hope for healing but i serve a risen Savior, who is in the world today.(anyone remember that old hymn with those words? Be honest!) I have 2 more weeks of radiation/chemo before I can be back in WL where i am suppose to be. When you find yourself in a situation where your body needs healing, certain scriptures all of a sudden become "very" special to you. I hope you don't mind, but i have to throw out another challenge. Please send me scripture references regarding healing in scripture.(remember, the ladies came out on top with the last one) You can post on my email(slimtimmy12@yahoo.ca or blog) I really do value your involvement in my life. It really is incredible to me. I highly value it. As i read more on healing, and listen, i really get that much more focused on the healing that is on it's way. My hope in in the Lord! There's no other place that even comes close. As He continues to pour hope into my life, He continues to pour His love, as He pours love, He mixes in joy, as He... just fill in the blanks with all the positive words that describe Jesus.It's that awesome! I am so blessed that i actually feel so spoiled rotten. Seriously, it has gotten to the place where i think people must for sure think i am in some kind of a denial stage,mixed with a fear that has masked itself as hope. i don't understand it all, not even close. But, i do know Jesus personally as my best friend. He has been there for me for the past 30 years and i know so clearly His promises ARE TRUE. THE BIBLE IS FULL OF HIS PROMISES. One promise that is a real favorite of mine is Prov.3:5,6 which says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight." That is one scripture that has been fulfilled in my life so many times. Break that verse down over this next week and really look into what is being said here. Applying this verse alone to your life will remove depression. In fact, i feel so strongly right now that someone reading this blog is being healed of depression right now as they are reading this. Wow! I just have to pray for you right now. Father, i come before you in Jesus name. I am so thankful for your healing touch on lives right now. I pray for this one who is experiencing healing from depression right now. I ask that you would fill them so full of your love. It's your love Lord that is so desperately needed in this world and I pray that this depresssion would be so OBVIOUSLY gone in this persons life in Jesus name! Amen. Please be praying for whoever that was intended for. This isn't something that i have been doing with this blog. But, as i say that, i feel that it is something that is going to be happening more as i am open and allow the Lord to use me in this way. Guess what? Normally i am pretty pumped throughout the day, but at this moment, i am extra pumped and excited about what is next. This journey with the Lord is so amazing. I hope you don't forget the scripture challenge. What a great day! Talk to you soon! Enjoy the Lord to the fullest!
In His Grip,
Tim
