Last Saturday, Bill and I went to the Jones Theater to see "Last Ounce of Courage". That is one of the most powerful movies we have seen in years! It is not for unbelievers. It is a challenge to Christians! There was not a dry eye in the theater, and no one moved when the movie finished! It was several minutes before we could leave our seats. I apologized to the kid who was waiting to clean up, and he said it had been that way on Friday evening. He said the crowd just stood and wouldn't leave until the music and the credits were finished.
Janice arrived from Springfield on Saturday. She and Noel are exploring the possibility of founding a group home for challenged adults in Shawnee. They have found several people who are interested in helping them with this project. Noel has a dream to make it first class and staff it with caring Christian people.
Sunday, Noel, Janice, Mark and Mom joined us for a snack of tacos and apple pie and ice-cream. After, we watched a Gaither DVD that Mom had ordered. It had clips of their best concerts over the years in places like Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center.
This morning, I took Mom to the dermatologist. She does have cancer on her nose that can be treated with chemo cream. Without insurance, the cream is $215. I had never heard of it before. The doctor also took a biopsy off of her cheek. In a week we will know if it is positive for cancer. The worst case scenario is that she will have to go to a plastic surgeon in OKC to have a small chunk taken out of her face. Not good! She takes everything in stride and trusts God to take care of her. God is good all of the time! I'm so glad that I can stand up straight and not have a bundle of worry on my back. As Whitley Phipps said, "You can't climb to the top of the mountain if it is smooth.
