Some circumstances are easier than others for embracing the providence of God in the everyday affairs of His children.  Tonight Tirzah had the opportunity to rejoice for 15 others who qualified for the semi-final round.  She didn’t make the cut.  So, we’ll relax, enjoy the waterpark and other entertaining events!  Thanks for your support -the good news is that she (and we) have lots of Scripture truths in our minds and hearts that we wouldn’t have otherwise!

And, on the health front, I’ve added an impending root-canal to my issues.  For now, antibiotics are dealing with the pain and poison. Also, my involvement in the clinical study for Panobinostat in New York has been postponed until February.

There is a verse somewhere that says, “in everything give thanks for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus.”

. . . it is and we do!
