ROAD SIGNS TO PARADISE

We got back last night from a glorious week at a resort in northern Minnesota, an 11-hour drive. The further north you go, the funnier the signs get. Here are a few:

Stop in For Our Daily Specials: SMELT IS HERE!

Gordy’s Foods (right next to the newly-built Gordy’s Fresh Foods; hmm, which one should I go to?)

We’ve Got Issues (Mesabi Daily News)

WE HAVE WAXWORMS

Prayer request: An apartment manager friend of mine has asked for prayer for one of her dearest residents, a physician named Tom Hansen, who was recently diagnosed with cancer. She says he is a kind, gentle, and respectful man with no unhealthy habits, and his only symptom was swollen feet. As he proceeds through testing and treatment, O Great Physician, we pray for mercy and healing for Your servant, an early diagnosis which keeps this cancer manageable, and complete trust in You. Grant him the wisdom that comes from suffering which he can apply throughout his personal and medical life to come. (Psalm 125:1)
