Thanks, Kathy, for that reminder from Proverbs.  Certainly, I want to be
able to pay the bills but I don't want ever to have money or things separate
me from the Lord.  OFten, I pray that the Lord will not give me all I want
if it will hinder our relationship.

I am asking Him right now to provide for me again.  My new driver of four
weeks, is having a lot of personal problems and may not be able to continue.
My greatest concern is for her.  I know that God will take care of me: He
will provide for my needs.  He has done that many times already.  In fact,
He gave me this driver when I was in a bind.
Please pray for Shelley, my driver.  Her life is a mess.  She is separated
from her husband and trying to get a divorce.  She has two children, ages 10
and 6 years old.  The older is a boy, the other a little girl. Shelley has
been in church most of her life but I don't think she has ever really had a
relationship with the Lord.  I believe that God is working with her and on
her to bring her to Him.  She has had first one problem then another since
she came four weeks ago. We have not worked this week because her car is
bearly running and she doesn't have money to do anything with it.  She went
down to Florida a week ago to bring her children up here wit her.  She has
no one to stay with them, she cannot afford child care, she can't get any
help because she is not yet a resident.  My neighbor is a mechanic and is
going to check out her car for me today. Pray with me that the problem is a
small and simple to fix one.  Pray too that Shelley will come to really know
the Lord through this situation.  It is a teaching opportunity.  Pray for me
that I will be available to the use of God's Spirit and follow his leading.

Thank you all for being my family and so faithful listen and pray for and
with me.  God certainly blessed me to find E-church some 10 years ago.  I
feel a real kinship with you like none other that I have had via the
internet.  Praise God that you have been there for me in hard times and in
good times.  Thank you, Phil and Vicky for you labor of love to get this
going.
God bless you all and may we all together praise Him!

Thankful that I know Him,

Ned
