Summer Update

Well, much has changed since April .. weather finally seems to be summer for sure. Along with that a wake up call you might say, .. spending 10 days in the hospital with an infection that still hasn't been traced, and now having a pacemaker to regulate my heart rate (seems to be working).

I started required training that would upgrade my drivers license (CDL) to provide for driving the buses at our church for outings, etc. Having completed two of five classes, I was interrupted by the stay in the hospital and the classes will now be postponed until further notice and re-evaluation physically for approval to continue. I am waiting on God's direction to see if I can continue that venture.

God has been orchestrating my steps, and Pam's of course, as we walk through this new challenge in my health and her's. According to doctor's, I should be able to return to a "normal" lifestyle after the reasonable recuperation I am now walking. From the time I entered the squad for a ride to the emergency room, till this day, I have received excellent and thorough care from the hospital staff, both doctors and nurses. We know certainly the prayers of our family, and church, plus extended family of friends has been the most rewarding as we have agreed that the healing provided by God, is evident. Yes God uses medicine and doctors, ... all healing comes from God and I am witness of His Presence through a very uncomfortable process.

Give God the credit and praise for not only saving my life, but providing the renewal of my strength. As you remember me, and Pam, in the coming weeks, we continue to appreciate the ongoing prayers and encouragement each of you have offered. May God richly reward each of you and your families.

Our steps ahead are not known, but we are entrusting our lives to Him to direct our steps and guide us by His Wisdom.
