Just Some Thoughts

I have prayed hard and discussed, in detail with my family, the options given whether chemotherapy again or no chemotherapy and have decided that it is God's Will that I proceed with the treatment so I have only one point I want to make clear and hopefully it will not have to be made until some years in the future:

I don't want it said of me, at my memorial, that "he stands before Jesus Christ because of those he may have taught or lead toward Christ."

I don't want it said of me, at my memorial, that "he stands before Jesus Christ because of those he may have ministered to or assisted in some Godly fashion."

I want it said of me, at my memorial, that "he KNEELS before his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in grateful humility because he knew the importance of the sacrifice of his soul to a Holy God."

Presently chemotherapy is set to begin on February 14, 2011...Happy Valentine's Day, to my sweetheart of 40 years.

Hello

Yes, it's me, Dave...I'm back...for now.  Some very extreme changes in my health (which are not really an excuse for not writing) but what the heck.  I needed some time to clear my brain.  The good thing is that it is small enough so that I didn't have to take too much time.

Anyway, just a note tonight to let you know, I will try to get back into the devotional "saddle" and start sending once again.  Lot's of changes in my life over the past several months but since I love talking about myself, I am sure you'll hear about them.

In the meantime, God is STILL in control and will be posting again in a few days.  Hope you are all still out there. And of course, BTW, I need more prayer than I have every needed before so if you can, won't you please petition God for me when you think about it?
