Reception following

Your presence or card is gift enough

Gary smith is expected to go home today following his surgery last week. Doctors report that his lymph nodes look good.

Virginia Henderson, Kate Hembree's daughter is back in St. Anthony's where she is waiting on a heart transplant.

Jessica Yort, a friend of Christa Haslam has cirrhosis, not expected to live.

Jerry Austin, Dusty Austin's cousin was diagnosed with colon cancer. The prognosis is not good.

The Bible suggest three timeless principles for facing your future:

1. Include God Your Goal-Setting

Frankly, it's dumb to make plans without consulting God first. He's the only one who DOES know the future - and he's eager to guide you through it. The Bible says, "We may make our plans, but God has the last word." (Pr. 16:1) In other words, planning without praying is presumption. Start by praying, "God, what do YOU want to do in me and through me?

2. Live One Day At A Time

While you can plan for tomorrow, you can't live it until it arrives. Most people spend so much time regretting the past and worrying about the future, they have no time to enjoy today! Someone once quipped "Life is what happens while you are making other plans." Decide to make the most of each moment! Jesus said, "Don't be anxious about tomorrow - God will take care of your tomorrows. Live one day at a time." (Matt. 6:34)

3. Don't Procrastinate - Do It Now!

"Don't boast about what you're going to do tomorrow, for you don't know what a day may bring forth." (Pr. 27:1) Procrastinating is a subtle trap. It wastes today by postponing things until tomorrow. You promise yourself that you'll do it "one of these days". But "one of these days" is usually "none of these days."

"For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope... You will find me when you seek me, if you look for me in earnest."
