| Grace and Peace to you all,
What a privilege it is to be a precious saint of the Lord Jesus Christ. I feel as if I have taken that fact more lightly than I should, and I pray that the Lord keep me in His Word to keep me aware of it. It is so easy to become spiritually lazy when not in the Word. I pray that the Lord may keep me in His Word as much as possible that I might see more and more of His glory and grace. Lord keep me holy. Keep me pure Lord. Keep me in upright in Your glorious and rightous statutes. May Christ be glorified in all that I say and do. May the love and peace of Jesus Christ be with you all.
Christ Reigns Supremely,

| hey there everyone! sorry for the long pause between
posts. i'll do my best to keep it up from now on. the Lord
has been so gracious to me these past months. my dad has been
doing well getting his chemotherapy over the last few months. as
of right now he is not going through with the bone marrow
transplant. the dr's down at md anderson are thinking since his
remission has lasted this long that there is a strong possiblity with
each passing day that he will remain in remission. but our
prayers were answered with 2 very good matches for a transplant that
are willing to donate if he comes out of remission, and they think more
strongly about a bone marrow transplant. Christ has been growing
me in his Word these past few weeks. Jesus Christ is the Author,
Perfector, and Finisher of our faith. Praise be to Him who
sustains the very breath I take at this moment to praise His
name. the friday night bible study has been such a blessing to my
heart. I have missed the fellowship and worship these past
weeks. I was reading Ephesians this afternoon and in Chapter 1
verses 17-22 "that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of
glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the
knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened;
that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches
of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the
exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe according to the
working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised
Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly
places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion,
and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that
which is to come. And He put all things under His feet, and gave
Him to be head over all things to church, which is His body, the
fullness of Him who fills all in all. "
The Lord blessed my heart with gladness in Him on Friday night.
Christ "filled my gap." As Christ grows my affections towards
Him, I feel a greater and greater need to be like Him. Lord grow
me in your Word, that I might give glory to your Son. Bring me
out of the darkness Lord. Keep me in Your will. Lord I want
to give glory to your holy name, Jesus Christ King of Kings! I am
praying for all of you, and may the love and mercy of Christ Jesus our
Lord be in your heart. May the peace and grace of Christ be with
you.
Stay Strong in Christ Jesus,

| Hey there! Sorry for the long break, I have been so terribly busy
in the last month or so. Two weeks ago today I passed my final
board exam before I graduate and now I am an official Registered
Respiratory Therapist. The Lord calmed my nerves so mercifully
during my test. My job has been going very well and I am pretty
much doing Echo Studies on my own now (with the Lord's help). My
dad is back in town for a couple of weeks in between his chemo
treatments in Houston. I am so thankful that the Lord has brought
him back in town for a while so I can visit with him and minister to
him in any way the Lord may allow me. I have been so thankful for
the past few weekends when I have been able to travel down to houston
to see my dad, and now that he's back in town for a short time I have
even more to be thankful for. The Lord has used His Word to keep
me in His grace during all of my work and traveling and I bless His
holy name for mercifully protecting and encouraging me. Keep my
dad and my family in your prayers. May the peace of Jesus Christ
be with you all.
Stay Strong in Christ,
JDWIII

| Sorry for the long delay from post to post. The Lord has been my
strength these last few weeks. Between all the tests at school
and all the new responsibilities with my new job, the Lord has upheld
me with His mighty and merciful hand. Where I am weak, His
strength is made perfect. I feel so blessed to know the
Lord. I just pray that He will give me courage to open my mouth
and talk to more people about what He has done in my life. I
neglect to do that so many times when I should in my life. I
should care more for their souls. This is our calling and
command. I pray that the Lord will give me the words to speak to
every person He places in my life. Well, here is the latest
update on my dad: He has not had any chemotherapy in the last 4
weeks and is no longer having to take IV antibiotics. He and my
mom are heading down to MD Anderson Cancer Center this weekend for a
consultation and they will be spending up to 5-7 days down there.
Be in prayer that the Lord will use the doctors and therapy he will
recieve there to keep his leukemia in remission. Jesus Christ is
the Great Physician, may he touch my dad and heal him completely.
I believe that my dad knows Christ as his Lord and Savior, and I only
pray that the Lord will use this trial to bring my dad closer to
Himself and that Christ might be glorified in the healing of my dad's
illness. This is my prayer at all times, that Jesus Christ the
Sustainer of ALL THINGS, might be glorified in all that I think,
say and do. AMEN.
May the divine peace of Jesus Christ be with you all.
Stay Strong in Christ,
JDWIII

| The Lord is so gracious and merciful. I have so much to be thankful for. The Lord has blessed me with salvation through His holy and precious Son Jesus Christ. There is nothing in me that merited my salvation through Christ Jesus. It was all of the beautiful and eternal good grace and pleasure of the Almighty God Triune. Fathom this for one moment, we, the church of Christ, His body, His bride are an eternal love gift between the Father and the Son, created to show the glory of Christ forever. I know that was a runon sentence, but I feel like I must and will talk of Him forever. There are not enough spoken words in all of creation to describe Him. I have been praying that it would be God's will for me to be able to get a job in echocardiography (ultrasounds of the heart), somewhere around town. Echo jobs are scarce because most people who get the jobs that are offered don't leave because it is a specialty job. Anyways, the Lord has so awesomely provided me with the offer of an opening at Willis Knighton Hospital. The Lord is so amazing. My flesh kept telling me, "naw man, u'll never find a job like that around here." Ha! How doubful the flesh can be. Praise be to Him! The Lord has also been so gracious to my dad as he has been dealing with consequences related to his recent infection. The Lord has removed the infection from his arm as far as the docs can tell and today they took out the vaccum line that they had in his arm to drain the fluid out. They also sewed up his wound which has been healing for the past 2 weeks. Thank the Lord! For a while the docs thought that they might have to do skin grafts, but the Lord healed it. Thank all of you for your prayers, I covet all of them. The Lord is so amazing. Christ is King!!!! Amen brothers and sisters in Christ!! Sorry for the extra lengthy post but, I have so much to be thankful for in Christ Jesus that I couldn't stop typing!! Praise be to Him!!!!
Stay Strong in Christ,
JDWIII | | |
