Message From Amazing Grace Ron

Hello to you.
My right thumb narrowly escaped amputation ? I will recommend that it ain't a bad idea to train your left hand to take over when your right hand lets you down ?


You know that all your life if you are right handed that every time you set down to eat every time your right elbow bends your mouth flies open ? I'll have to say with my left hand my mouth has been disappointed several times !!

The pain is slowly going away and thanks be to our Master I'll be back close to being normal in a few more days ? Now if I can just convince my brain that part of my finger is gone I'll be good to go ! Two or three sharp pains wake me up in the middle of night shooting down into my finger sharp enough to wake you !

Another thought I will leave you with , when they amputated my index finger that they just put a nerve block on my hand , but I was able to stay awake but they wouldn't let me watch ? I could hear when they cranked up the saw and I could hear someone say that that didn't take long ?

Wed when they split my thumb they put a nerve block on my thumb and I got to watch the whole thing ? Very interesting ain't it ? I asked him if He had ever did this before and knew what He was doing . He just laughed ?

Thanks for all your prayers and love ya'll have shown ! It humbles my heart !

Blessings.

Gathering Sticks
READ: Acts 28:1-10
Through love serve one another. -Galatians 5:13
A painful illness had prevented Bible teacher Billy Walker from carrying on his active schedule for several months. He told a group of men that he especially missed being able to preach, but that God was teaching him throughout his recovery.

One day during his illness, as he meditated and prayed, Billy's attention was drawn to the passage about Paul's shipwreck on Malta recorded in Acts 28. There is more to the story than Paul's miraculous immunity to a venomous snakebite (vv.3-6).

This great apostle to the Gentiles, preacher to thousands, worker of miracles, and writer of much of the New Testament, was stuck on an island as a prisoner. Did he lie back and bemoan his condition? Did he think he should be treated better than others because he was an apostle? No! The Scriptures tell us that he chose to contribute to the work and needs of his fellowmen. It was cold and rainy, so Paul "gathered a bundle of sticks" for a much-needed, warming fire (v.3).

Perhaps you've been set aside for a while due to difficult circumstances. Maybe you've reached the time in your life when vigorous activity is no longer possible. Don't despair. Remember Paul's example, and do what you can do-even if it's simply "gathering sticks." - David C. Egner

Start where you are in serving the Lord,
Claim His sure promise and trust in His Word;
God simply asks you to do what you can,
He'll use your efforts to further His plan. -Anon.


God never puts you in the wrong place to serve Him.
