 2.8-

Facebook has been a good location for learning important news from family and friends. My hometown, Ladonia, Texas and my schools, Fannindel and Abilene Christian University have been sources of great opportunity for education and prayer support in time of need for our family. Facebool and Instagram have helped me reconnect and keep up with major events. Most have access or family does.

Since covid hit on 3.11.20 there have been many groups who have used Facebook and Zoom to keep alive their community which supports them. For this I am thankful for social media. Like the printing press, radio, television, computers, the internet and smart phones they can be used for good or evil.

Since I am a teacher I have tried to use all of the to communicate good news. Since 2012, I have tried to post a daily note to send messages to increase the joy of others as well as my own.

Many of you have been praying for my skin cancer surgery on my right ear on Monday. 2.5.24, about 8am with Dr. Momin and her staff and me. Thanks so much.

2 Conthians 4.

7 But we have this treasure in [e]earthen containers, so that the extraordinary greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves; 8 we are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing; 9 persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed; 10 always carrying around in the body the dying of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. 11 For we who live are constantly being handed over to death because of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our mortal flesh. 12 So death works in us, but life in you.

13 But having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written: “I believed, therefore I spoke,” we also believe, therefore we also speak, 14 knowing that He who raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us with Jesus, and will present us with you. 15 For all things are for your sakes, so that grace, having [f]spread to more and more people, will cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.

16 Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer person is decaying, yet our inner person is being renewed day by day. 17 For our momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, 18 while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal.
