The Month of October...Providence.

This previous month has been a tumultuous one. After months of prayer about whether we should move out of state or not, my pregnant wife and I spent a day in the emergency room and month ago due to stomach pain. They found a seven inch tumor on her right ovary and several smaller tumors on her left one. Emergency surgery was necessary. The Christian surgeon saw our situation and figured out a way to cover our $30,000 expenses. The surgery went great. Tumors removed. Able to save 90% of left ovary. Right ovary removed. Baby is healthy and strong. Blessed be God.

These passages were our song during this time...

"It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man." Psalm 118:8

"I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever.Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works.And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness.They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee.They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power;To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom.Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down.The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season.Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy.My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever." Psalm 145

I am presently in a moving truck with my father in Maine. We are approximately one hour from our new home... Sedgwick, ME. Julia flew out and is waiting on our arrival. My father flew down to Nashville to help with driving. What a blessing. 25 hours in two days. Our cat Lentil is riding with us, sleeping on our laps the whole way. He's a good traveler.

Thank the LORD for His graces toward us in this time. Thank you to any of my brothers and sisters that were praying for us during this time.
May the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ strengthen you hearts in grace and peace in believing today. Bless His holy name for ever and ever.
