Merry Christmas to you all. This has been a wonderful Christmas. I was able to sing in all four of our Christmas Eve services and all three performances of our Christmas program on the 4th and 5th. God used my testimony to lead 3 people that I know of to Christ. That makes all of this worth it. Souls rescued from hell, spending eternity in heaven with Jesus....and me!!!! I also visited a man having a stem cell transplant in the bone marrow unit of Florida Hospital, IN MY SAME ROOM!!! That was weird. He is now home recuperating. It is hard to believe that it has been 9 months since my transplant. I am doing very well. My hair has grown back, all curly. And I mean curly like a poodle. I don't care, it's hair!!! Colored hair, but hair!!! No, I thought I could do the Jamie Lee Curtis thing, but I can't. With an 11 year old, I just couldn't give in to the gray.
My energy level is back and it is very rare for me to have to stop and rest because of fatigue. We are eagerly anticipating 2010, Michael Buble in March and Chattanooga in April for a Precept Women's Conference. I have never been, after 20 years in Precept, so I am excited. I go for all of my vaccinations in April and so far, my blood work has all been normal. I love that word, normal. I even rode Thunder Mountain at Magic Kingdom. Can you believe that? I never thought that would happen. But, God is not in the expected, now is He. He always surprises me.
We hope you all have a great rest of 2009 and may the Father of all, that blessed Creator Who sent His Son to give us abundant life, WAY more than we could ever ask or think.
Thank you for your prayers, please continue. Prayer changes lives, of that I know right well.
