Pins and Needles

This is the week when I should have so much faith. This is the week when I have a cat scan tomorrow and meet with my doctor Thursday to find out what comes next. Most of the time it's okay, but doubts keep creeping in and I just have to remember that God is in control. I have to give Him my worries and fears. Yesterday one of the songs we've sung many times at church really struck me in a deep way. You know that feeling when you think the song is just for you?

"So take me as You find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender...
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save
Forever, author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave, Jesus conquered the grave..."

I am so encouraged by that song and the melody is totally stuck in my head!

My sister, Janice, is coming this weekend! I can hardly wait! And Liz might come too!
Thank you for your prayers. Love, Julie

As always, Julie, your deep, unwaivering faith and incredible positive outlook and attitude amaze and inspire me. You might not be in the classroom this fall, but you remain the ultimate teacher:)

I am in CDA all week, so if you want to head out for lunch or ??, please call me (661-1981). It would do us both good!

Prayers continue from the Pfeifer house and our extended family!
