¹Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.
2 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.
3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.
4 I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:
5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.
6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
8 For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.
9 But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
Again with the prayers for BG. I talked to Nana yesterday and got her side of the story. She said, “You know how George can get….” Whew boy do I, although as I told BG yesterday he never cleaned my car like he does hers. According to Nana she “crawled up one side of him and down the other”. In Southernese that means she gave him a dressing down or that she made him feel like his was 10 years old and had just broken the neighbors window.
I am not there so I don’t know what is really going on. I did live with the man for 14 years so I know what can happen when he gets on his high horse and rants. You will do almost anything to shut him up. The problem this time is that BG is half him so she doesn’t back down. So I am once again asking for prayers for both of them.
Kim: I will continue to pray for BG and you, and everyone else in her realm of influence. I was a nightmare from 14 to about 21…don’t forget, there is hope!
Connie, our nanny of ten years who has become my surrogate mother, lives with a woman who is a longtime friend. We’ll call her “A”. A is approximately 55 years old and has a 15 year old granddaughter, whom we’ll call “B”. A has had custody of B since she was very young b/c her parents are unfit. Well, B has disappeared or runaway, we’re not sure which. However, she didn’t take any of her things (computer/tablet/purse/clothes) when she left, other than her phone. She was last seen at 1:00pm Sunday, getting into a truck with a man who was approximately 30 years old. The police have been contacted. B had been emailing with some man and had sent him a picture of herself about an hour before she disappeared. They’ve called B’s cell and a man answers. He told them that if they don’t stop trying to find B, he will kill them. It’s a very frightening situation. And, Houston is a major hub for sex trafficking. Please pray B will be found unharmed and soon. Everyone is a nervous wreck, and rightly so. My heart aches for all involved…
“Cameron”/Anna is being prepped for a C-section. Babies are 3.4-4 pounds each, two months early. Docs are optimistic, she’s had the drugs needed to mature the babies’ lungs. Some of you will remember her first child’s delivery was early and traumatic as well. Let’s hold her up in prayer, but especially babies Ruth and Elizabeth.
Oh my Ann. That is truly is the nightmare of every parent with a daughter. They think they are invincible and know what they are doing…they don’t.
Prayers your way too.
I’m sorry to hear about MIM, I’m praying for him. Keep us posted as much as you know.
I’m not on facebook, thought i get lots of e-mail about it. I’m not going on.
A young woman, the mother of four children, was brutally murdered in our small community this weekend, I was horrified to learn today. Apparently, two of the children were in the home when her boyfriend killed her. I don’t know whether they witnessed the attack. Please pray for the children and the woman’s other loved ones.
Praying for all. I sure hope they will be able to track that girl down. They were able to track one down that I knew ended up in LA in a similar situation. I did ask for prayer for that situation on here. She was brought back to her family, but still has some issues. At least her family does know where she is, though, and are able to keep trying to influence her.

You have them Kim. My regular prayer for BG is that she doesn’t do something dumb with a lasting consequence.

Didn’t Cameron have difficulty with a previous pregnancy? I think that turned out OK.
Babies are viable at seven months using modern incubators.
