Hi friends!!!
After disappearing for a few days and having Andrew fix our computer, I went and disappeared again for several days. This time I suffered sever pain from kidney stones and ended up in the V.A. hospital in Syracuse, N.Y. where they operated and put a stint in me and also blasted 5 stones (4-5 mm each) and removed the pieces. I have to go back in 2 weeks and have the stint removed.
Good news--while there I kept my CLV and Ray's hard copy in plain view and was able to talk to many staff as they inquired about the
new kind of Bible. I also got to "lead" my room mate to the Lord before I left. (Pray for Charlie as he is being fitted for a new prosthetic leg.) I was also able to talk to my sister about my new B-T teachings as she was stuck with me in her car for an hour and a half ride home. She doesn't understand BUT she did patiently listen and then I gave her the same courtesy. I will talk to her pastor later, per her request for me.
I truly thanked God for all the writhing pain I experienced and the last two days I concentrated on really studying line by line Ray's "10 Truths to Understanding the Bible". I figured that if Ray could research and write material in writhing pain --that I could at least read it
it in the same condition! The discipline was a lesson in itself. I REALLY appreciate Ray's writings all the more!
That is all my ramblings for now. Oh, heard from Moises and he is doing well.

Duane,
Glad to hear you are doing better! May God bless you in your trials and spreading the Good News :)
In Him,
John
PS - Janine, if it helps, imagine a sandspur caught INSIDE your body in those tiny tubes leading from the kidneys to the urethra.
