Monday 6/26, and prayer by the elders

Hi,
Well, yesterday was great since Glynis met me at Home Depot and we finally decided up on and procured the fans for the house with the idea that Dave could perhaps come over during the day on Tuesday to install them while I was being infused with chemo. Later that day, Bev Combs came over to help me come up with a plan to organize my office and it was great. I'm excited about that.

Prayer
I rested in the afternoon and then went to church where the elders prayed for me. That was awesome. Before I went in I started to tear up just hugging Carrie Ingram because of the Lord. It was a Holy Spirit thing. I was actually a little nervous on the way to go to church which sounds funny, but I was. However, it was truly amazing to have all of these men of God around me praying for me. Pastor Bob anointed me with oil and several prayed out loud. I was really moved not only that they wanted to pray for me, but even so at the appreciation that they showed to me for my service to them. That was truly a gift that unforseen. Sometimes when we're serving God we don't think that anyone really notices or appreciates it, and of course we should just concentrate on pleasing God rather than man, but it is nice when someone says that they appreciate you and the service that you believe God has called you to. I love the people at Southwest, and it is without a doubt that I was called there. The only reason I am able to do anything there is becasue of Him and to show Him. How much greater I hope it will be during this time.

After prayer, I went by Glynis to pick up some stuff she got for me from Trader Joe's and went to dinner (steak, of course) with a friend before heagin to the airport to pick up my dad. My dad got in fine, but his flight was delayed and we got home a little late but it was fine. I showed him some things to prep him a bit for the next couple of days. He's in good spirits.
