Life, and Miracles!

Life is busy as always, but I have a few spare moments so I thought it time to update everyone. Practice continues for the Arlington High school and Middle school Christmas programs. I met with the director, Patty Cody, and the group on Monday afternoon to go over the first and last song, which is all I get. The principle will not allow them to have a full rehearsal, so the rest of the songs we are going to have to wing! Yikes!!! Lots of prayers are going to be said by a certain pianist tomorrow night as I depend on God for even the page turns to go smoothly. Doing these musical things has really proved to me how completely dependent I am on God for even the smallest things. I know that if it wasn't for Him, I would have flubbed previous concerts many times. So after tomorrow night there is another concert the following Thursday, two actually, with the same group during the day. Then in two more days we will have the Christmas program at our church. God is good, though, and I know He will get me through. 

Now to a much more important update:

Last Sabbath we held one of the most exciting events our church has seen.......... 11 Baptisms! But even more excitingly for me, one of them was my Dad! Praise God for the incredible miracles He is doing! God is wonderful, and I am seeing now that He is readying His people in many ways for the days to come. I know this doesn't mean smooth sailing from here. In fact, it probably means just the opposite, but just the same we have the assurance that God will be with us through it all, and some day we are all going to be united in the coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! May we all be there on that day!
