Prayer request from Judy

Quick prayer request from Judy, along with a picture. Here's Judy:

It’s for my youngest brother Steve who has been diagnosed with an aggressive lung cancer. My sister & I went to visit him on Friday. He & I have prayed together several times in the past but he is now in a crisis of faith. Please pray that Steve will genuinely turn to the Lord during this time and that he will experience God as savior & healer.

Thank you sooooo much.

Love & hugs,
Judy

Standing Encouragement from Desiring God

Dr. John Piper, senior pastor of Bethlehem Baptist in Minneapolis, Minnesota, is a solid Biblical teacher. He also happens to teach, without wavering, that marriage is one man and one woman for a lifetime.

His most recent "Ask Pastor John" segment emphasizes this fact once again, and he commends the daughter of the writer of the question for standing firm on Biblical principles, waiting on God in her marriage.

The link below provides a way to listen online, download, or read a brief excerpt of the podcast.

What a blessing that we have such a wonderfully understanding man of God in a prominent position who is teaching God's truth about marriage!

Encouragement from Vic in Georgia

This was too good to wait until the Monday message, so I am posting it in the blog. For those who regularly check the blog, you get an early treat. :-)

If there was ever a time that I needed to see this, it is now. It has been in my in box for several days, but only looked at it today.

God is so good
