Psalm 92
A psalm.
1 It is good to praise the Lord
and make music to your name, O Most High,
2 proclaiming your love in the morning
and your faithfulness at night,
3 to the music of the ten-stringed lyre
and the melody of the harp.
4 For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord;
I sing for joy at what your hands have done.
5 How great are your works, Lord,
how profound your thoughts!
6 Senseless people do not know,
fools do not understand,
7 that though the wicked spring up like grass
and all evildoers flourish,
they will be destroyed forever.
8 But you, Lord, are forever exalted.
9 For surely your enemies, Lord,
surely your enemies will perish;
all evildoers will be scattered.
10 You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox;
fine oils have been poured on me.
11 My eyes have seen the defeat of my adversaries;
my ears have heard the rout of my wicked foes.
12 The righteous will flourish like a palm tree,
they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon;
13 planted in the house of the Lord,
they will flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They will still bear fruit in old age,
they will stay fresh and green,
15 proclaiming, “The Lord is upright;
he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him.”
Continued prayer for daughter and son in law. Their babies need them whole.

I am having a tough day. I am generally a “the glass is technically full- half with water and half
with air kind of person. Today the glass is completely empty.
Mr P had back surgery in February of 2013 that led to two more surgeries for the stimulator to hand the nerve pain. One in July of 2016 and one this past May. Then in October he had knee replacement and we are looking at doing the other knee in February. For over a week now he has been dealing with vertigo.
I am tired and if I am honest, more than a little depressed.

Deteriorating health is very exhausting for the observer as well as the patient.

Kim – There is so much on your shoulders, being the wife, caregiver, and breadwinner, it is understandable that you are exhausted and depressed. Praying for you to be able to rest in Jesus, and to be refreshed in some way.

Prayers, Kim, for renewal of your strength, physically, mentally, and emotionally. 2020 has been a draining year on so many fronts.
It is best not to think ahead to the next surgery except to mention it to God in prayer and leave it with Him.

Carol is hitting a tough stretch, they’re giving her Lomatril (sp?), a prescription to help stop her constant diarrhea, and also Zoltan to counteract the nausea and vomiting caused by the Lomatril. But she doesn’t like the way Zoltan makes her feel, says it makes her ‘burp’ a lot, so it sounds like she’s resisting taking it. I advised her to take the meds, her body hopefully will adapt, and she simply can’t physically afford to be vomiting all the time with that hernia in such a precarious condition.
I’m keeping tabs on her for now but may place a call in to her doctor. Worried about her, she just seems to be on a downhill slide which I’ve seen before in older friends and relatives through the years — usually doesn’t end well.

And pray for my friend Shirley, she was scheduled for a colonoscopy today but they canceled it because her oxygen levels were so low (she also has COPD); she told me tonight while we were messaging that the last few days have been really rough and she actually considered calling 911 but doesn’t want to wind up at county general; I told her if she needed me I could take her somewhere else, but she said she thought she’d be OK tonight, she does have oxygen she uses overnight but it hasn’t been helping lately, she said.
She’s my friend from the ‘old’ neighborhood, Methodist family, her brother became a minister, but Shirley is not a believer (though I think believes she kind of is, generally speaking).
