Greetings to you all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ,
Have you ever felt like the task before you was impossible? I recently experienced just such a time in my life. As you may know, we are getting ready to relocate in a different area. As a result, we have spent today loading up a large trailer, a car and a van, another truck and still given some stuff away. As we went through the house, it seemed like an endless task. I didn't think that we would ever come to the end of it. It seemed to be impossible to me. But, the Scriptures always come up with a comfort and God takes care of the situation. Matthew 19:26 says, "But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible." Diane and I are now in a motel having completed the task. Oh, it wasn't just us. We had a lot of help, I mean a lot of help, both men and women from the church came out to help us get things packed away. I didn't know how the van could hold so many small things. The whole point is that God has a way of getting things done. While we may fret at the moment, when the day is done, God always comes through. What had seemed to be impossible was really possible with God in His way and in His time. It might be with moving or completing your education, or just surviving a terrible experience. God always sees you through and has sufficient grace for you to make it. You are never left alone hanging on a rocky precipice with your feet dangling over oblivion. Remember! You are in God's hands and with Him, all things are possible.

Much has been happening these days as we get ready for the final aspect of our move. Things are going well with the recuperation after the surgery and my PSA is now "0." I sure am glad of that but I will have to have another PSA test done in about 3 months. Most of the pain is gone and only the scar is a little sensitive. Oh, by the way, you have to really watch it when you cough or sneeze. Leaking has become just a little bit of a problem but no real issues about that as yet. The house has been purchased at the other end and we are getting ready to close on the sail of this home which is backward from the way I would have liked it to go, but we have been assured that everything is going as planned. Getting ready for a new life in a new spot and anxious to see what the Lord is going to do with us. Stay tuned.
