FINALLY

Ephesians 6:11 

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

To be rightly dressed is a command from God and we better listen now,

For His orders are right and meant to help so stand before Him and bow,

Put on His armor described by Paul and you'll be the better for it. 

And through the tests of life which come your way, you will never want to quit.

The ability God gives to withstand our foe, so put on His armor today,

And you'll be prepared to fight right and to be all He wants you to be each day. (RP)

We finally heard from a doctor yesterday when Margie consulted with the specialist about a shoulder replacement surgery.  We have been told for years and observed this ourselves, that oftimes after surgery on the elderly, there is a loss of mental alertness and capability. Her doctor yesterday affirmed this without our even asking him about it. We have asked other doctors and they said it wasn't true. My missionary brother's doctors refused to do some surgeries on him because they said they wanted him alert and capable of continuing his Bible classes and preaching. Now our concern is on Margie's pain, which at times is severe. This is why she opted for the surgery. But now we must trust the Lord for answers for her pain. Thanks for praying.
