Friday's Joyful Shout (Ephesians 6:1-4)

Last look at this week's theme, "Jesus Loves the Little Children." Congrats to Michael and Elizabeth Sannelli for guessing it. They won a Newsboys CD/DVD. New theme rolls out on Sunday. Be the first to guess it and win a prize.

 1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 2 “Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise: 3 “that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.”
4 And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord. (Ephesians 6:1-4, New King James Version)

PRAYER
Eskaros Family: (from Carol) Thank you thank you thank you thank you for praying for us. My mom (Waafa) is finally home with me after a harrowing 48 hours. She had numbness and heaviness on her left side, so stroke was feared and now, finally, ruled out. She had a CT scan, MRI, MRA, coratid doppler, and echo, all between the ER and two different testing facilities in PA. She also had a liter of blood removed, so it has been a WHIRLWIND...

Thank you, Jesus, it was not a stroke, and we continue to pray over her body for relief of these difficult symptoms. You have no idea how much your prayers, calls and notes mean to her and to us. God be glorified.

She will stay with me until tomorrow, just to make sure she's safe, and then she will ease back into regular life over the next several days.

As for me, my white blood cell counts continue to be consistently low w/ repeat testing, and my joints are screaming, but we've moved follow up on that front to the back burner for now, just until we see to my mom, and my kids get a bit more normalcy since Tuesday night's nightmare. They need to simply focus on school and music, and not hospital runs for a few days. Lord willing!

Blessings,
B :)
