Back In The Saddle
I woke up today feeling GREAT! My goal was to put in a full day at the office, and as I write this it is almost 4:30, so I did it! It's been a very fulfilling day. I started out with a great Scripture for the day (sent by my dad) from the Apostle Paul:
"We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about the hardships we suffered in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead." 2 Corinthians 1:8-9
When I arrived in the office this morning, Pastor Gary Curry was waiting with a great story. One of our custodians was here over the weekend when no one else was around. As he stepped into the church foyer, his feet froze and he heard the Lord say to him, "Pastor Scott has been healed." It still has him trembling, because he has never heard God speak to him in that manner before. Thank you GOD!
Just before noon, a baptist pastor from Aiken was driving by the church and felt God direct him to stop and "go pray for the pastor"! He came inside, introduced himself, prayed for me and assured me that his church would join me on my Journey to a Miracle!
Here's two great follow-ups on the Hope Bracelet project. Yesterday John Rutherford took a bracelet home for Jackie. Here's his email note to me..."She opened the bag, took it out and started laughing which I thought was a strange reaction to a serious situation. I couldn't understand it until she handed it to me and it read, I SAVED A PET! The only thing we could figure out is that God's bracelet got mixed up in the bunch and that it was the one HE wanted to wear to show that He had saved one of His PET PASTORS from cancer!"
Kelly Cox also told me the story of how she managed to find 500 Hope Bracelets for the church this past week. She searched online and found 500 at a cost of $2 each ($1000) and then decided to contact the company. After explaining the reason behind them, and sending my website to them (with Hannah's picture) they promised to pray for me and decided to DONATE the 500 bracelets for our congregation!!
Wow! What a Day! God is alive and well and working His miracles!! Thanks for caring! Thanks for praying! I love you!

David said it all: I saw God before me for all time. Nothing can shake me; He's right by my side. I'm glad from the inside out, ecstatic; I've pitched my tent in the Land of Hope. I know You'll never dump me in Hades; I'll never even smell the stench of death. You've got my feet on the life-path, with Your face shining sun-joy all around.
