Trey Tuesday - September 11, 2012

Remembering....

Yes, it has been a day of remembering 9/11....

Beyond that, though, what else causes you to remember?
Birthdays, for sure!
Anniversaries, of course!
Holidays (well, the big ones anyway!)  :)

Under the leadership of Samuel, the Israelites took the ministry of remembering very seriously.  Samuel set up a monument to remind them of God's strong Hand in their victories.  The monument was called an Ebenezer, saying, "Thus far the Lord has helped us."  I Samuel 7:12  The stone pillar reminded the Israelites of all that God had done for them.  Did the stones have any magical power?  Did the Ebenezer grant their wishes?  Did it promise success whenever the Israelites faced opposition?  No.  The stones served as a reminder - pointing them to God and His power!  :)

What are your Ebenezers?

Your bank account?
Your car?
Your job?
Your vacation home?
Your health?

Your family?

Mine is Trey!  :)

To see and hear the life in Trey, despite all that he has been through and all that he continues to go through, encourages me to press on in God's power and timing!
To watch and follow Jay and Rachel as they faithfully journey on, I remember the One who is the object of their faith!
To imagine Joe and Bella living day to day in the midst of uncertainty, I hold tight to the trust found in our Rock, Jesus Christ!

Please remember all that God has done for you - and for each of us in Team Mitlo One - beginning with Trey!
Praise God for Trey's great "health!"

Praise Him and remember all that He has done through and with Trey!
And please pray for many, many more great days of remembering!

Trey will have a CT scan in a few weeks - please keep praying for NO growth!  :)
