"And
Rebekah said to Isaac, 'I am tired of living because of the daughters of Heth;
if Jacob takes a wife from the daughters of Heth, like these, from the
daughters of the land, what good will my life be to me."" Genesis 27:46
Lots
of plotting, destructive behaviours and manipulation. As the world turns the world deteriorates. Strange it took so long for physicists to
formalise this thought as a universal law.
Take
care with love, especially His! Your
servant and friend in Christ, Darlene

please pray for the two young sons of Melanie
Karunaratne - who passed away.
Raven - her cancer
has spread to her lymph nodes, bone scan came back ok second time around, lungs
are still iffy, but the spots are too small and too close to blood vessels to
safely biopsy right now - looking at four rounds of chemo, then radiation, then
pill. Chemo starts this Thursday (15
Aug).

has now been given full time work. John, Patti's husband is now
