Positive and negative

VERSE FOR THE DAY

Isaiah 41:10 

Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.'  

God tells us not to fear, because we fear so much,

He comes to us with soothing words and tender touch.

We get discouraged many times so He comes to give us hope,

And the assurance of His presence so that daily we can cope. 

We are so weak and need His help, for strength along the way,

And this is what he promises, every single day. 

How wonderful to have the help from our holy God above,

Holding our hand in His, upheld by His great love.

Although Margie did not have a good night. That's the negative. She had a wonderful day yesterday. That is the positive. She went to Mt. Vernon to the Immanuel Baptist Church where a group of ladies meet to do quilting.  Kathy Stewart from our church who quilts enjoyed the last time they visited there, and wanted to return.  Our good friend Geraldine Thomason was the hostess and Margie and Kathy had a wonderful time.   Margie does not quilt but does appreciate seeing and watching those who do.  She returned for our afternoon prayer meeting at church and in the evening my brother Harold took us to a restaurant in Burlington for a wonderful meal with our son and his family.  So it was a big day.  Margie's brother-in-law Jim, still remains in critical condition in the ICU at the hospital and many are praying for him.  Thank YOU for your part in intercession.
