Today's storm was rough on John's alma mater.  The roof was ripped off the gym at Jackson County High School, an air conditioning unit hit the gym floor along with several inches of water.  The girls were to host the Regiional Tournament tonight but had to play at the middle school.  May have to build a new gym!?

This is one of my Bible Buddy students, Alby Gaby. Two weeks ago in class, he quoted his memory verse for the month.  Today he is in a hospital bed at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital fighting two cancers; leukemia and lymphoma. He has multiple tumors throughout his little 6 year old body. He is struggling to breathe and is in tremendous pain. It breaks my heart to see him and his Mommy and family going through this. Our memory verse he quoted to me:

Nahum 1:7
The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and He knoweth them that trust in Him.

Mark and Lauren are leaving tomorrow evening to go on a mission trip to Haiti. Tonight we went to their house to pray over them. Of course they weren't wearing these cute glasses when we prayed for them.  
"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy  Ghost: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even until the end of the world, amen."
Matthew 28:19-20

I am not a Seattle Seahawks fan but I promised Ivan Overstreet that if his team won the Super Bowl this year that I would wear something with the team logo on it. He was so pleased!  I forgot to get a picture with him so I will need to get one another day.

Today is World Cancer Day so I wanted to share my cancer hero. As a child I went to sleep many nights worried about my Daddy. I can remember crying for him and praying for him. There were what seemed like hundreds of hospital stays. I was too young to know what it was like for my Mom dealing with this and having two small children at home. God answered thousands of prayers!  Daddy's testimony and smile have always been the high light of his character!  Praise God for sparing him!
